Также известная как советник, роль священника заключается в оказании психологической поддержки экипажу, который в ней нуждается. Кроме вашего офиса, крематория и морга, у вас нет доступа.
Очень важно использовать радио для вызова людей в часовню, потому что в остальном она менее посещаема, чем библиотека.
Обязанности
Каждый священник волен придумывать детали своих ритуалов.
- Похороны: у вас есть запас гробов, которые вы можете использовать для поминок и космических захоронений (that is, launching them out of the mass driver). Некоторые сотрудники ценят поминки для друзей и близких.
- Психологическая помощь: сюда входят консультации, фармацевтические препараты (проконсультируйтесь с химиком) и признание. У вас есть исповедальня; вы с исповедником заходите в разные комнаты и включаете радиотерминалы. Большинство членов экипажа редко, если вообще когда-либо, подвергаются психологической помощи по собственной инициативе; предлагать помощь, когда кто-то выглядит обеспокоенным. Чаще всего во внимании нуждаются заключенные.
- Церковные службы: читать проповеди и петь гимны. Не стесняйтесь придумывать их, просто старайтесь, чтобы это было относительно разумно.
- Другие возможные действия: Привлечение новых помощников и паладинов, посвящение мехов, гравитационные сингулярности, психические исследования и сеансы, а также паломничества в различные места.
Религии
Если вы решите пойти по религиозному пути, к наиболее распространенным религиям, одобренным NanoTrasen, в 2556 году относятся:
- Аколизм; объединение многих основных религий Земли.
- Технологизм; вера в то, что роботы и киборги святы.
- Орден Великой Дамы; вера в то, что человечество наделено знаниями и амбициями, присущими огромному драконоподобному пришельцу, которого мы сейчас называем леди Эльзара.
Однако вы можете распространять любые известные вам современные религии или даже изобретать свою! Просто убедитесь, что это не противоречит NanoTrasen и его ценностям, иначе вы вполне можете попасть в тюрьму.
Thanatology
The Mass Driver's primary purpose is for burials-at-space; wooden caskets are provided for this purpose. Caskets function likes lockers; place the body in the casket, give a eulogy (over the radio if no one is present), move the casket into the driver and fire it.
Note that some crew members may seek to use the Mass Driver as a way to exit the station into space. This should generally not be allowed without very good explanation.
The Crematorium is used to turn bodies into ash. Remember to strip the body before cremating it.
Propitiating the Gods
The Pray command is like an adminhelp, but is In-Character, and should be worded deferentially (e.g. "Oh Great and Wise Pelor, please grant your humble servant...). It is advised that you only pray later in the round; the gods have a habit of ignoring early prayers.
Prayers are more likely to be answered if they are somehow thematically appropriate: wishing for an RCD for no apparent reason is unlikely to be fulfilled, but praying for, say, a divine mission or the tools to complete such are more amusing to the gods.
You have candles and crayons in your locker. Candles can be set anywhere and lit (they eventually burn down). Crayons can be used to draw runes (commonly placed in front of the podium), as well as graffiti (not really your style) and letters (allowing you to write out messages across the ground).
Do not expect any prayers to be answered. Gods are fickle beings. Nobody knows what they are going to do next in their great designs.
Artifacts
Your Book
You begin the shift selecting your god, religion name, and holy book appearance. It can also hold a small number of items in it.
Striking someone with it has a chance of either healing or causing brain damage. Try not to do with without good reason. Hitting someone on the head with a book is not considered normal behaviour by any means. Additionally, striking a tank of water can bless it, converting the water inside to holy water.
If someone were to fart on it, they'd likely invoke the wrath of whatever deity you worship.
Crusader Armor
A dated suit of plate armor that was previously used as part of a holy crusade. Provides decent armor. Wearing this armor will slightly slow your movement speed.
Null Rod
An odd item that is said to repel the evil magic of Occult Gods. Made entirely out of obsidian, the rod will reveal and dispel runes, and protect the wielder from them. Using on a brainwashed cultist has a chance of reverting them, doing nothing, or hitting them. Use it wisely. It's also a good melee weapon in general, should you come to need it. It's possible to turn it into a different artifact. Simply use it in your hand to transform it.

Traitoring
The chapel is a relatively secluded part of the station, and odds are the AI won't be keeping an eye on it. You can drag around bodies, as well as both space and cremate bodies without looking suspicious. It's your job, after all. You also have access to a reasonably powerful set of armor that you won't look suspicious wearing, and a good melee weapon that you're allowed to carry.
You've also got easy access to the library- Combined with an emag, this will allow you to print arcane tomes. Whilst not directly useful to you, this can throw off security's attention, and potentially earn yourself a place on the security team if they suspect a cult.
The chaplain also has access to three specialized items restricted to his role. His Grace, a toolbox that grants projectile immunity and gains damage with every kill, the Missionary Starter Kit, which allows the chaplain to temporarily mindslave personnel over a distance, and the voodoo doll that allows you to mess with people from any distance.
