Fading Suns d6 character template 7 - The Priest

Priests wield great power over the peasantry, less so over the freemen. Still the Church can exert its will over even the nobility when the hierarchs feel it is necessary. As such, all the secular authorities in the Known Worlds make at least some effort to appease the Church. That is not to say a nobleman won't dispose of a particularly bothersome Avestite if the opportunity to do so presents itself. On the other hand, Amaltheans are embraced by virtually all people of the Known Worlds and most priests of other orders have more to fear from the Avestites than they do from the general populace.
