Throughout the Silevian Empire, people know of the godly influence of Bahamut, the Justicemaker. His clergies boast plaques engraved with the profiled bust of the Platinum Dragon within their churches and his greatest temples are crafted from marble and beautiful stonework and are adorned with a many precious objects. Within these temples, along with the clerics and paladins of Bahamut, some followers practice the harnessing of ki and the train to enforce the ideals and whims of the Justicemaker. These monastic acolytes harness some draconic feats gifted upon them by their deity through elemental strikes to scale-like protection. These few are only the highest and most skilled of their league and hold high ranking positions in the Empire's society.
