Divine Agent - WIP
Not all priests are clerics, and not every problem can be solved by prayer or preaching. Clerics and Paladins can solve most problems a church has, but sometimes, someone needs to really "dirty" their hands when dealing with heathens. These people are not often found in temples, but in dark alleys and among the church's enemies. These people are Divine Agents, a blade in the night that stands to uphold their deity's teachings, and standing.
Whether the deity a Divine Agent serves is from the White, Black, or other Pantheon makes no difference. There are some deeds that the clergy of their deity do not and will not do, that sometimes, is required of the faith. You are a devout worshipper of your deity, almost zealous. Though others of your faith may deem you inferior to them, you know that it’s quite the contrary.
