Message: <blockquote data-quote="Blue_Genie" data-source="post: 1829904" data-attributes="member: 13477">Slippshade:  Don't worry, Slip, if you can't get to the computer.  You have enough to worry about right now.  If necessary, we can always fit you in the later.Krug:  Yes, I'm going to say (it's not in the rules) that it will work just like a sorcerer's spell selection, and you can pick new spells to faithcast when you go up in levels.  Before you make your final decision, however, let me remind you that there are some obligations for being a faithcaster.  If this is too restrictive for you, you don't have to take the feat.The Tenets of MorrowFaithcasters must maintain their belief by contribuing to the good of the Church.  A cleric must contribute as much as he receives; this is Morrow's way of balancing the distribution of divine power.  For a faithcaster, the duties are a mix of obligation and benefit.CHARITY:  The conditions of charity require that the cleric tithe the majority of his personal wealth to the church.  Clerics of Morrow may keep small amounts of personal money (never exceeding 500 times the cleric's level).  However, should the church require emergency funds, the clergy must hand over any available funds to the church without question.  Should a cleric require extra funds he may petition his superiors for access to the necessary monies.  Withholding funds from the Church is a sign of greed, and therefore a sign of corruption and heresy.SERVICE:  Clerics of Morrow must answer the church's call when their aid is required, and must obey their superiors without question.  All of Morrow's faithful put his worship before obligations to family and country.  Disobeying a Church summons, or being insubordinate to a Church superior, violates a cleric's decree of service.  Such actions are considered heresy in any but the most extreme circumstances.ARTIFICE:  Creating symbols and items of faith for the Church is a full time industry and many clerics fulfill their obligations by scribing fine books, creating icons, and building cathedrals and shrines.  All of Morrow's servants must be able to construct holy symbols, shrines or other material symbols of the faith using the Craft skill.  Creating a permanent magical item, shrine, church, or cathedral for the Church forever fulfills this obligation.  All clerics must bless a holy symbol they have designed to the specifications of the Church.CEREMONY:  Clerics of Morrow must serve Morrow's children, for they are the lifeblood of the church.  A priest must perform services, and is required to provide services to comrades and companions.  At least once a week a cleric must spend time administering prayer and devotion as a small service on the tenets of Morrow and the teachings of the Enkheiridion.  Other ceremonial obligations, such as baptism, ordination, weddings, and funerary rites are the duty of all clerics and performing these rites is mandatory when the faithful request them.VISITATION:  A priest must spend time in pilgrimate or meditation for part of each year, typically near the time of a holy day or ceremony.  Whether the cleric spends his visitation cloistered in a cell at a monastery, or traveling to the site of a holy ascension is his choice, though members of the Walkers Faith tend to spend this time in pilgrimage.  Throughout the faith, pilgrimages to Caspia to visit the Sancteum are most common.</blockquote>
