You notice a poster pinned up within the Churches and cities of Oren The Friars of St. Amyas Who are the Friars? We are the humble friars of the church. Preaching the ways of the Creator and distributing alms to the poor. We live our lives as humble men, not being boisterous and not causing trouble. The first mendicant order, we find the secular clergy too stationery to work to help the poor of the Empire survive. What are our goals? Our goals are simple, we work towards the betterment of all people. We shall take those that can no longer care for themselves, provide for their families, afford shelter and or food under our holy wings in hope to better their well being. We pledge ourselves to following the tenets of the faith, to make sure that all may live. What is our belief? We believe in the Doctrine of One. The belief that the Creator is architect of the universe and progenitor of humankind. He is unique and inherently one, omnipotent, omnipresent, and omnibenevolent. We believe that it is a requirement to have a good understanding about the religion. Our Ranks: Master of the Order - Pontiff Adeodatus the First The Head of the Entire Order, he makes all major decisions for the order and is the only one able to ordinance one as a full friar. He is able to accept members into the order. Grand Vicar - Edward of Salvus The head advisor to the Master of the Order. This man has proven himself as a worthy friar and is the second in command of the order. Also a scribe for the Master of the Order, he can also make minor decisions concerning the order. He is also able to accept members into the order. Friars - None as of yet These men are men sworn into the order. They must preach, hand out donations to those in poverty, watch over the less fortunate and live a life of humbleness. Friars rarely stay within a town for a long period of time and instead journey around the Empire, helping those in need. These men have taken the vow of the Friars Minor. Novice - None as of yet These aren’t full members of the Order but study to be full friars. These They are not permitted to wear the grey robes of the friars but can distribute alms if told to by the Friars. These men have not taken the vow that is needed to be in the order. Laymen - None as of yet Men who serve the church devoutly but aren’t official members of the Order. They usually are labourers for the church, they farm, pin up notices and collect donations.
