A job that most find unnerving and even creepy, it was your father who did what no one else wanted to do. He taught you about the necessities of the work, and how it was important to show mercy and kindness to those left behind. You grew up ignoring the looks from others when you passed through town, knowing that the thoughts behind each of those faces often showed how much people did not want to see you. It was not hate, or any cruel emotion like that, but only the fact that your presence meant that someone had died.
When you quit your apprenticeship to your father and joined the temple, you brought with you the desire to assist those who would be passing on into the next life. The god you chose to follow seemed natural to you, considering the life you've led and the knowledge you gained from working with your father.
You've spent your life around the dead, and you are able to see it as a gateway into the next world instead of an end to the journey. You know the anatomy of the body, and have an expert level of knowledge when it comes to determining how someone has died. You have a bonus in wisdom, and you have a bonus every time you cast a spell that involves healing a person. (Any "1" rolled while determining the amount you heal someone can be re-rolled.)
