Devoted to powers and philosophies of the divine, the servants of organized religion live as their faith dictates and seek to spread the tenets of their beliefs to all with spirits that want and ears ready to listen. Whether in glorious temples, cathedrals, or mosques of widespread religions or the secretive sanctuaries of cults, mysteries, and esoteric orders, those of the faith provide a variety of services both to the faithful and those with the gold to further glorify their beliefs.

An acolyte can also make holy water for PCs at a 20% discount. An acolyte is a priest in training, often a callow youth fresh from the cloisters, loaded with zeal but not much practiced in proselytism. They are found in temples and monasteries throughout the world, and their enthusiasm and devotion makes them eager to take up arms and armor to defend their faith and flocks. Acolytes of different faiths can be easily created by simply changing their domains, spells, armor, or weapons. Evil acolytes might have the Death and Evil domains, for example, and channel negative energy instead. An acolyte of nature could have the Animal and Plant domains, and wear leather armor. Acolytes can be temple caretakers or messengers, attendants at small roadside shrines and chapels, or assistants to more experienced priests. A pair of acolytes may accompany a temple guard (CR 3), a pilgrim (CR 4), or a medium (CR 5).
