Chaplain

Chaplains are traditionally protector or warrior priests that minister to the spiritual and psychological well-being of their charges, instilling in them the values and beliefs of their patron. Chaplains are usually attached to a secular institution, most often a military.

Though historically members of the Chaplaincy represented single deities, the profession has now opened up to cover various religions or philosophical traditions, with some Chaplains (particularly those attached to military organisations) covering entire pantheons to cater for all the soldiers under their care.
