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.

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.
*'''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 it would be wise to advertise your sermon some minutes 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 conversion (some elements you may want to include: drugs, glossolalia, sacrifices, drinking of [[Guide_to_drinks|certain drinks]] or [[Guide_to_chemistry#Narcotics|chemicals]], public announcements, prayer, lying naked on the altar, strikes with the holy book, confession, blood-letting).

Note that the chapel, on most maps, isn't a high-traffic area, so announce it over the radio in advance.


*'''Blessing Rooms''' Your bible has the power to turn ordinary water into holy water by <s>blessing</s> smacking the container with it. Holy water stops any [[Construct | Evil Spirits]] or [[Wizard | Magical Beings]] from Ethereal Jaunting onto the tile that you splash the holy water on, and can deconvert cultists. If a cult or wizard is discovered then it would be the best idea to bless a water-tank with your bible, give that to security, grabbing a fire extinguisher and blessing that too and then asking for the AI to let you in so you can bless his chamber from potential harm. The fire extinguisher will allow you to easily bless rooms because it will affect every tile that the water travels on. You can tell if a tile is blessed when it glows yellow after a little while.
*'''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.

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 each religious supply crate contains only a single flask. 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 all become holy.

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===
===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.

If [[admin|your god]] hates 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.

As a traitor, your curse of being ignored by everyone becomes a valuable asset. The chapel is a relatively secluded part of the station, and odds are the AI won't be keeping an eye on it. You have a null rod, WHICH IS ROBUST AS FUCK. Also don't forget that your bible is a useful storage compartment that won't attract suspicion, and if you hit someone in the head with a bible a few times they get brain damage and then it's a lot harder to yell for help. You can drag around bodies, as well as both space and cremate bodies without looking suspicious: it's your job, after all.

*The chapel is out of the way on most stations. Thus, unless you're suspected of a crime, you're not likely to be routinely visited. You can attract
Also remember that the morgue tray in the crematorium can store bodies, items and even whole crates. It's not a bad place to hide stuff (especially if the camera suffers from an "accident"), but keep in mind the light on the tray turns orange if anything other than a body is inside of it.

*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.
