Priest

Priests have been known since the earliest times and in the simplest societies. There are priests in all branches of the major religions of Talislanta, and many of the smaller religions. Priests are generally regarded as having good contact with the deities of the religion to which he or she ascribes, and other believers will often turn to a priest for advice on spiritual matters. In many (but not all) religions, being a priest is a full-time assignment, ruling out any other career. In some religions it is a position inherited in familial line. A priest or priestess is a person having the authority, or power, to perform and administer religious rites. Their office or position is the priesthood, a term which may also apply to such persons collectively.
