Their Primary Attribute is Wisdom.

Experience Modification number calculation

Add 1 point to their Experience Modification number for every 3 points of their Strength above 9.

Add 1 point to their Experience Modification number for every 2 points of their Intelligence above 9.

xp_mod = wis + max (0, floor((int - 8) / 2) + floor((str - 8) / 3));

Clerics can cast Divine Spells. See the Magic And Spells section.

Clerics can use magic armour

Clerics can use magic weapons that do not have a sharp edge. This means they cannot use Magic Swords or simailar, and cannot use magic Arrows.

Clerics can perform Magical Research.

If a Cleric reaches 7th level (Lama) and their Alignment is Neutral, then they must change their Alignment to either Law or Chaos.

Clerics Versus Undead Creatures

Clerics have the ability to turn away or destroy Undead Creatures.

To do so, look up the Creature vs. the Cleric’s level on the following table.

Numbers are the score to match or exceed with 2d6 in order to turn away the Creature.

T = 2d6 of these Creatures are turned away automatically.

D = 2d6 of these Creatures are dispelled/dissolved.

N = Clerics of this level have no effect on these Creatures.

Fortification Building

A level 8 Cleric (Patriarch) can build their own Fortification.

If they spend 100,000 Gold Pieces in constructing their Fortification, they may build one worth 200,000. Their deity provides the extra Gold in this case.

The following religious Humans will come to inhabit a Patriarch’s Fortification, and they will serve for free.

• 1d6 * 10 heavy cavalry
• 1d6 * 10 horsed crossbowmen (“Turcopole” type)
• 3d6 * 10 heavy foot soldiers

A Patriarch will receive tithes of 20 Gold Pieces per inhabitant per year.

If a Patriarch changes sides between Law and Chaos, the tithes will stop, and the religious Humans who server them will leave.
