New page

Sin is the term for behavior in [[The Holy Order of King Dav|Davism]] that works against the two
pillars of the faith: purity and goodness. When an individual sins, they
are called by religious duty to confess their sin to a priest or priestess
and undergo [[cleansing]], in order to wash the taint of their sin from their
soul. Failure to do so promptly and with a willing heart can lead to
rejection from the Lord's presence after death, leaving one's soul cast out
as food for demons - a fate most wish to avoid.

As such, confession and the cleansing that goes along with it are feared at
times even by the most loyal Davites. However, confessions between priests
and supplicants are forever sealed and private-- only able to be breached
by the Patriarch himself. Additionally, known sinners who refuse to repent
on their own will often receive a visit from Church Inquisitors, and
avoiding their reach is punished far more strictly than by those priests
conducting confession.

(Note: It's fine for you to RP your character as receiving confession from
an NPC, so long as the sins are minor and you confess to a PC Orderite
occasionally. Use your best judgment on what you feel is "minor.")

The official list of sins is maintained by the Holy Synod with the
occasional edit, but has remained fairly similar to the initial list
published in the very first Erra Pater.

1. '''Magery:''' Magery is a demonic taint of pure evil, anathema to the Lord.
2. '''[[Heretic|Heresy]]:''' Rejection of the Lord's words.
3. '''Murder:''' To end someone's life outside of legal bounds.
4. '''Betrayal:''' To break a solemnly sworn oath.
5. '''Fornication Without Blessing:''' The sexual union of bodies outside of holy matrimony.
6. '''Impurity:''' Miscellaneous sins such as lying, drunkenness, and being quarrelsome.
7. '''Acedia:''' Sloth or indifference toward religion.
8. '''Lawlessness:''' The breaking of lesser laws than murder.
9. '''Greed:''' A desire to benefit oneself at the expense of others.
10. '''Denying One's Station:''' To fail to uphold one's role in society.
