As a chaplain you would ideally proselytize whatever crazy religion you've made up for that round over your [[headset]]. However, besides your office, the hellish crematorium next to it, the theater backstage, and the rarely used morgue, you have no access.
 
'''Bare minimum requirements:''' Know how to deal with the various supernatural threats that afflict the station, and have something to do when there aren't any.

==Holy Artifacts==
In your possession are several important items with various utility If you can keep it in your possession, you should.
 
===Holy Book===
Arguably the most important tool in your arsenal is your bible. It may be named differently depending on your religion, but for the sake of this page, it will be referred to as a bible. Certain religion names will give you a custom bible name. For example, setting your religion to Hinduism will name it "The Vedas", while setting it to Christianity will name it "The Holy Bible". Otherwise, it is simply titled "The Holy Book of [Religion]". Feel free to experiment with different names/words to see what they result in or check the [https://github.com/yogstation13/Yogstation/blob/master/code/modules/jobs/job_types/chaplain.dm file] for a full list.
 
When you interact with it directly, you will be first prompted to select a skin from ones available. They are purely cosmetic, so feel free to choose whichever you like the most. After this, you will be able to access the inside storage compartment of the bible, which holds a bottle of whiskey. You can put almost anything else in there, however.
 
Hitting somebody in the head with your bible will heal 10 points of brute and burn damage on organic limbs (robotic limbs are refused to be healed) while dealing 5 points of brain damage to them, up to a total of 60 brain damage. However, this can change depending on your selected sect: see [[#Altar_of_Gods|Altar of Gods]] below.
 
Note that the bible can't be used by non-chaplains, sizzling in their hands if they try to do so. However, they can still access the contents of the bible itself.
 
===Null Rod===
Note that all null rods can be put in your special armors.

===Armaments Beacon===
The armaments beacon can be found in the ChapDrobe. When you use it, you will be presented with six options:
*'''Profane Scholar Kit''' –
*'''Stone Sentinel Kit''' –
*'''Witchhunter Kit''' –
*'''Templar Kit''' –
*'''Followers of the Chaplain Kit''' –
*'''Founder Kit of the Black Templars''' –
===Altar of Gods===
Attacking it with your bible will allow you to choose a sect. Currently, there are only three:

==Duties==
Individual chaplains are free to invent their own specific rituals, but there are some matters shared across all types of chaplain, such as:
*'''Funerals''' – You have a stock of coffins, burial garments, a mass driver, and a crematorium. To properly "bury" someone, strip them of all of their equipment (save for their ID), set those off to the side or return it to the departed's former department, dress them in the burial garments, and put them in a coffin. From here, you may hold a proper funeral in the chapel (be sure to announce it over the radio in advance) and have someone (or a few people) perform an eulogy, after which you should either use the mass driver to launch the coffin into space or cremate the body and put the resulting ashes in an urn from the ChapDrobe.
*'''Psychological care''' – While this is intended to be the role of the [[Psychiatrist]], one might not be on the station or some may prefer your help. This can include counseling, pharmaceutical remedies (consult the chemist), and confessions. For confessions specifically, you and the confessor enter separate rooms and switch on the radio terminals. Most crew members rarely. if ever submit to psychological care of their own initiative; offer to help when someone looks troubled. Prisoners are most often in need of attention.
*'''Church Services''' – Give sermons and sing hymns. You can create a hymnal by writing a YouTube link or even the song code on a piece of paper and ask the [[Curator]] to print and bind spare copies. Note that the chapel, on most maps, isn't a high-traffic area, so announce it over the radio in advance.
*'''Proselytizing''' – Most crew members are godless heathens; acquiring followers for your god(s) is your first priority. When you convince someone to join the church, you can perform a ritual of initiation, which can be anything from reciting an oath to drinking [[Guide_to_chemistry#Narcotics|something]] to even public humiliation. Note that for more extreme rituals, you should check with your [[Administrators|god(s)]] to see if you can perform them without facing their wrath.
===Propitiating the [[Administrators|Gods]]===
The Pray command is like an [[adminhelp]], but is [[IC]], and should be worded deferentially (e.g. "Oh Great and Wise Pelor, please grant your humble servant...). It is advised that you only pray later in the round; the gods have a habit of ignoring early prayers. You can increase your divine favor by making a sacrifice to your god(s) of choice; you can do this any number of ways (it is wise to state what you have sacrificed in your prayer). Prayers are more likely to be answered if they are somehow thematically appropriate: wishing for an RCD for no apparent reason is unlikely to be fulfilled, but praying for, say, a divine mission or the tools to complete such are more amusing to the gods.
You have candles and crayons in your locker. Candles can be set anywhere and lit (they eventually burn down). Crayons can be used to draw runes (commonly placed in front of the podium), as well as graffiti (not really your style) and letters (allowing you to write out messages across the ground).
Do not expect any prayers to be answered. Gods are fickle beings. Nobody knows what they are going to do next in their great designs.
==You vs the Forces of Evil==
Even as the most divine person on the station, remember: '''you are a civilian, not a [[Security Officer]]'''. As such, most "mundane" threats such as [[Traitor|Syndicate spies]], [[Revolution|disgruntled employees]], or [[Gang_War|warring gangs]] aren't matters you should involve yourself in. However, for ''supernatural'' threats, you're suddenly the expert.
Note that for almost all supernatural threats, a large stock of holy water will be useful, as the flask provided in the chapel only contains 100 units and religious supply crates from cargo contain only a single flask each. Luckily, the process of making holy water is much simpler than in reality: just attack a container containing water with a bible and it will be blessed, turning all the water inside into holy water.
In addition, holy water can be used to bless tiles, denying dark spirits from teleporting onto them. You can tell if a tile is blessed if it glows yellow after a short delay. Generally, you should only bless areas likely to be attacked, such as the [[Bridge]] or [[AI Satellite]]/[[AI Core|Core]].
===Cultists===
In spite of how they may otherwise differ, fighting against [[Blood Cult|blood]] and [[Clockwork Cult|clockwork]] cultists tends to be fairly similar. Although you could wait for them to become a real problem and attack with security, it's generally better to stop the problem before it starts. That is, to have security arrest cultists, deconvert them using holy water, and optionally implant them with a mindshield to prevent reconversion.
Your null rod does ''45'' extra damage against the constructs of blood cults. It can also be used to cleanse their runes.
===Shadowlings===
===Vampires===
===Wizards===
===And More===
If [[admin|your god(s)]] hate you enough, you may also encounter a [[Revenant]], an undead ghost creature that wants your souls. Again, your null rod is incredibly robust against these creatures.
==Tips==
*Your bible doesn't just store bottles of booze. It can actually hold a great deal of things, from decks of cards to food to even certain null rods.
*Due to the Mass Driver working on just about anything that can fit on top of it, [[Curator|some]] may want to use it for exploring space to quickly reach distant ruins.
==The Inquisition==
As a traitor,
*The chapel is out of the way on most stations. Thus, unless you're suspected of a crime, you're not likely to be visited on a whim.
*You start with not only the null rod, but a beacon from which you can get very good armor.
*The morgue tray in the crematorium can store many items, making it a good place to hide stuff. However, if something that isn't a body is inside, its light will visibly change color.
