Unlike other races, Highmen have no priest class, as traditionally defined in other societies. Responsibilities traditionally held by clergy are distributed throughout all members of the race, with one ruling body called the High Council. As such, the race maintains a higher level of spirituality and a strong focus on "eternal" things. Highmen Saints are watchmen--spiritual laborers--decrying wicked worlds and bringing worlds together under the safe refuge of righteousness. They have strong persuasive abilities, convincing others of the evil of their ways. They provide refuge for their converts, bringing them in harmony with their race. These charismatic Saints are gifted healers, rebuke the Undead, and strike their enemies with the powers of heaven. Saints are not necessarily gifted fighters, but do not fear death and many have rejoiced to die as martyrs.
