They are typically clergy members of the main local Church dedicated to a typical religion emphasizing on law or goodness. Most of the time such priests are not combatants, thus most use the Cloistered Cleric variant from Unearthed Arcana (p.50). Cloistered Cleric: (Unearthed Arcana OGC) The cloistered cleric spends more time than other clerics in study and prayer and less in martial training. They are more appropriate than clerics (whom with their combat training could be seen more as crusader types) for being parish priests of quiet humanoid communities, especially when they belong to religion emphasizing on peace or knowledge. Cloistered clerics get d6 hit-dice, poor bab, and are only proficient with simple weapons and light armors. On the other hand, they get 6 skill-points per level, have access to more skills (add Decipher script, all Knowledge skills, and Speak languages), have access to Knowledge as a third clerical domain, get the bard's Bardic Knowledge ability, and have access to a few more spells (including Identify).--------------------------------------------------------------------------#35 - HUMAN PARISH PRIEST (ACOLYTE)Cloistered cleric 1st Level;  PHB 3.5 / Arcana UnearthedAcolytes are novices who act as assistants to a curate.

They are generally in charge of a small temple, and are the priests you may expect to find in a village, or district's church in towns and cities. They run the daily religious life, performing ceremonies, as well as assisting and counseling the flock. They normally know their parishioners fairly well, and are usually held in high esteem in their community.Alignment: NG, LG, or LN (used to serve the faith or community, could be either austere or benevolent).Parish Priest (Curate): Human, Cloistered Cleric 3rd-lvl.Combat: AC= 10 (touch 10, flat-footed 10); Hit-points: 13; Initiative: +0; Speed: 30 ft.; BAB +1, Grap +1; Atk: melee: +1 (1d4, 19-20/x2, dagger), ranged: +1 (1d4, 19-20/x2, 10 ft., dagger).Saves: Fort +3, Ref +1, Will +5.

Their faith and dedication is the same as that of other parish priests, but their training emphasizes less on knowledge and more on combat. Their duty usually includes performing religious ceremonies as well as defending the community. However, they spend less time socializing and educating the flock. Whenever a regular curate would be confronted with supernatural or heretic threats, he is likely to call upon a militant priest for help.Alignment: LG, or LN (used to serve and defend the faith or community).Militant Priest: Human, Cleric 3rd-lvl.Combat: AC= 15 (touch 10, flat-footed 15); Hit-points: 25; Initiative: +0; Speed: 20 ft.; BAB +2, Grap +3; Atk: melee: +4 (1d8+1, 20/x2, heavy mace), ranged: +2 (1d8, 19-20/x2, light crossbow).Saves: Fort +4, Ref +1, Will +4.

They are either in charge of the more important temples (those of larger villages or small towns), or oversee several smaller temples and communities, going from one to the other and supervising their curates' activities. They are usually among the most respected individuals in their areas, on par with minor nobles. Their work usually includes much counseling among the community, and can be expected to know the local people fairly well.Alignment: NG, LG, or LN (used to serve the faith or community, could be either austere or benevolent).Parish Priest (Canon): Human, Cloistered Cleric 5th-lvl.Combat: AC= 10 (touch 10, flat-footed 10); Hit-points: 20; Initiative: +0; Speed: 30 ft.; BAB +2, Grap +2; Atk: melee: +2 (1d4, 19-20/x2, dagger), ranged: +2 (1d4, 19-20/x2, 10 ft., dagger).Saves: Fort +4, Ref +1, Will +6.
