Whether it's healing the sick, feeding the hungry, clothing the naked, bringing some much needed justice, or whatever the church focuses on. Have some tearfully grateful parent or child spontaneously hug the cleric with praises of thanks.</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">have the church give the PC a ceremony of ascention, where she is granted a higher level of office in the church, with the choice of receiving some power and responsibility, or staying "at large" which seems to be working so well for the church. Have the ceremony attended by all of the clergy of the church, and have the PC receive comments about how it is so impressive that a cleric who is so young to be granted such a title, and this can only mean that she is on a path of greatness, and aren't we truly blessed to have her with us at this time?</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">after the ceremony, have the PC escorted to the secret vault and be granted stewardship of the Holy Relic of St. Cleric. Now only has she demonstrated that she is responsible and faithful enough to use it in line with their god's will while also being powerful enough to protect it, it is clear that it would bring the most benefit to everyone if she was using it. And she has most definately earned the right to be entrusted with it.</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">optionally, this is where the high priest can bring the PC into confidence of certain political problems that the chruch is under, whether externally from the government, a rival faith, or from a scism in the church itself. Basically demonstrating that she is worthy to be entrusted with such sensitive information.</li> </ul>This is the kinds of "treasure" that such a player would most appreciate.As far as magic items, how about a necklace with the holy symbol of the church that glows, functions as a holy symbol, grants contiuous protection from evil and sanctuary, adds +2 or more to WIS, adds +2 insight bonus to K:religion rolls or +4 to any skill check when the question is about the cleric's own religion, funtions as a Phylactery of Faithfulness, and can replicate a channeling feat from Complete Divine or cast a spell if she channels some Turn Undead energy into it. Augury is a good choice. Searing light would be cooler. Basically a lot of little effects mushed into one item, making it a mini-artifact of sorts. Add some history to it, and you have something that will be treasured.</blockquote>
