Priest Itineracy

     After reading several postings relating to percentages and numbers of Rune level members and their potential for promotion, I thought I'd jump in. In my campaign, I envisioned that not all religons are tied to temples or shrines. Some Priests are itinerent over large areas, while others are missionaries or in search of a cult truth (not necessarily a Runepath or Hero quest, but something possibly more mundane).

     Take Lhankor Mhy priests for example. They could be out looking for or gathering information. They could be teaching High Lord's kids (while gathering inside information) or searching for past civilizations, like contemporary archeologists. These priests could be preparing their "masters" or "doctorial" theises. Chalana Arroy priestess could also be visiting many small, rural villages treating the sick or gathering special herbs. Issaris might be out discovering new trade routes and rare items for sale. Etc., etc., etc.

Until later -- dB
