New page

Many priests have the title [[Confessor]] in front of their names. For example, [[Confessor Archdeacon Samuel LeMarrom]], [[Confessor Saint Jozef]] and [[Confessor Deacon Morion Rain]]. For reasons of tradition, Confessor always comes before any other ecclesiastical titles with the exception of [[Most Reverend]], [[Electros Camerlengo]] or [[Pope]]. Confessors are the only priests authorised to take confession from passengers before a [[temple ship]] enters the [[Vault of Heaven]].

It is widely believed that Confessors have some degree of supernatural power, allowing them to read minds. The church has always been very insistent that they will neither confirm nor deny these rumours. A popular TV show, [[Secrets of the Inquisitors]], exposed their skills as merely an expert use of cold-reading and neuro-linguistic programming, although in fact this is incorrect.

<ooc title="The Truth">
Confessors have alow-level acquired psychic talent, giving them a natural ability to instantly detect when someone is lying to them. This power has a range of about 10m, and only allows the confessor to recognise an outright lie; not to determine the truth, or which part of a statement is false.
