RANKINGS OF THE CHURCH

Pontifice (Clergy)
The head of the church, currently occupied by Santo Lúcio. They order all three branches, and while they do not make every decision personally - Anything of importance ultimately falls to the will of the Pontifice.

CLERGY
Cardeal
The highest rank of the Clergy. They have mastered every rite possible for the church, and often guide the most complex of rituals. They respond directly to the Pontifice, but oft need to take the other branches of the church in consideration. In the punishing of criminals, they oft play the role of judges.

Reverendo
Those who have achieved success as Acolytes are personally approved by the Cardeais to become Reverendos. Their authority allows for them to guide day-to-day rituals of less importance, with notable participation in those guided by the Cardeais.

MILITARY
Inquisidor
The higher rank of the Church's military branch, Inquisidores respond directly to the Pontifice. They often achieve this rank by means of proved tactical and practical prowess in combat. Often, they are used to obtain necessary victories or to enforce the will of the church upon difficult situations that lesser soldiers would not succeed.

Arbitro
Proven soldiers of the Church, Arbitros enforce the principles of the church to its followers; They play the role of the Pontifice's indirect muscle, trusted enough to play the role of executors in criminal duty.

ARTISANS AND CRAFTSMEN
Alto Nobre (Civilian)
Nobles who have proven themselves invaluable allies to the church, obtaining access to privileged information from within. They qualify as civilians before the eyes of the Pontifice, but often take oaths to uphold Divino's vision. It is not uncommon for this rank to be held by nobles who are in the process of dedicating their lives to the church, often forsaking their family's name for the greater purpose.

Vigario (Craftsmen)
Craftsmen from all walks of life who have proven themselves willing and useful allies to Divino's purpose. They are Artesanos who have obtained a certain degree of prestige due to their contributions. They are often regarded in similar eyes to the Alto Nobres due to the many familiarities between the two, being informed of the church's actions equally.

Artese (Craftsmen)
Leigos who have taken upon a craft and an oath to assist the church; These are bound to Divino's vision to assist in whatever capacity they can. Through simple monetary contributions to equipments and potions, they work for the Church as a necessary backbone to God's will.

Leigo (Civilian)
Simple followers of the church, most members fit this role. While not necessary for any of them to take upon a rank of direct assistance, it is not uncommon for them to volunteer to do the more menial tasks.

While Leigos, they can take upon the role of Acolytes for those that wish to follow upon the Clergy's path or Soldiers for those who wish to ascend upon the Military branch; Often, those that specialize in such ways take oaths to uphold God's will in their respective branches, but it is not a necessity in most cases.
