Dorn is a lesser functionary in a temple to Selûne, raised from childhood to assist the priests in the sacred rites. He was shaped by his experiences in temples or other religious communities.

Personality Traits

•  I’ve enjoyed fine food, drink, and high society among my temple’s elite. Rough living grates on me.
•  I quote (or misquote) sacred texts and proverbs in almost every situation.

Ideal

•  Charity. I always try to help those in need, no matter what the personal cost. (Good)

Bond

•  Everything I do is for the common people.

Flaw

•  Once I pick a goal, I become obsessed with it to the detriment of everything else in my life.

Shelter of the Faithful

As an acolyte, Dorn commands the respect of those who share his faith in Selûne, moon goddess, and he can perform the religious ceremonies of Selûne,‘s faithful. Dorn and his companions can expect to receive free healing and care at a temple, shrine, or other established presence of Selûne, though they must provide any material components needed for spells. Those who share his religion will support Dorn (but only Dorn) at a modest lifestyle.

Since Dorn has ties to a specific temple dedicated to Selûne, he has a residence there. While near his temple, he can call upon the priests for assistance, provided the assistance he ask for is not hazardous and he remains in good standing with that temple.

Equipment

A holy symbol (gifted to him when he entered the priesthood), a prayer book, 5 sticks of incense, vestments, a set of common clothes, and a pouch containing 15 gp.

Commoners include peasants, serfs, slaves, servants, pilgrims, merchants, artisans, and hermits.

In the reckonings of most worlds, humans are the youngest of the common races, late to arrive on the world scene and short-lived in comparison to dwarves, elves, and dragons. Perhaps it is because of their shorter lives that they strive to achieve as much as they can in the years they are given.
     Chondathans are slender, tawny-skinned folk with brown hair that ranges from almost blond to almost black. Most are tall and have green or brown eyes, but these traits are hardly universal. Humans of Chondathan descent dominate the central lands of Faerûn, around the Inner Sea.

Acolytes have spent their lives in the service of a temple to a specific god or pantheon of gods. They act as intermediaries between the realm of the holy and the mortal world, performing sacred rites and offering sacrifices in order to conduct worshipers into the presence of the divine. An Acolyte is not necessarily a cleric—performing sacred rites is not the same thing as channeling divine power.
