The Exorcist:
A new Career for Warhammer FRP

As a sneak preview of Realms of Sorcery, here is a cutdown version of one of its new careers for PCs: the long-awaited Exorcist. Text by Graeme Davis.

An exorcist devotes his life to hunting down and casting out ghosts and demons. he might be a member of a religious order, or he may be a loner, self-taught. in either case, he will travel from place to place, dealing with hauntings, possessions, vampirism, and any other undead and supernatural phenomena wherever he finds them.

Because of the nature of his calling, the exorcist will also be skilled at detecting and exposing hoaxes, where supernatural activity is faked for one reason or another.

The exorcist's goal is to rid the world once and for all of supernatural perils and those who meddle with things best left alone; and many exorcists ultimately become witch hunters in order to achieve this. Exorcists make use of a variety of skills and spells to deal with the supernatural, and for the purposes of spell use they are treated like wizards.
