Divine Hierarchy II--Saints

Saints are deceased men and women of great holiness. The Church has recognized them for their blessed status, and the saints serve as the conduit between the Faithful and Ahiom. Saints can be divided and classified in many ways, but for these purposes there are: the founders who began the Faith; a large group of universal saints known all over Aorlis; and local saints.
Other ways to classify saints are venerable (one miracle), beautified (two miracles), and sainted (three or more miracles doctor of the Church, for those who contributed heavily to theology and liturgy; and martyred (those who died for the Faith and exemplars (those who lived lives of exemplary holiness). Among martyrs, there are wet martyrs (who lost blood dying), and dry martyrs (who did not). A confessor was a type of martyr who was tortured for the faith but didn't die were called Confessors.
