Mrutvu dislikes Undead more than anything else because he views it as an abomination and an encroachment of his own office. [Color=DarkOliveGreen]Restrictions/Expectations: [/Color] Clerics are expected to destroy any and all Undead they come across. If this means they have to hire higher-level adventurers to do so, that is fine, as long as it gets done. While this is viewed as an important activity, it isn't the only one they perform.
