Re: RE: [DL] d20 blessed and turn undead.

I don't see a code of conduct in there. Blessed characters are required to
have one, even if they're not priests per say. It's one of the major
limitations of a Blessed character.

Also, if he doesn't bother getting out of bed to Turn Undead, saying "G'way,
I'm sleeping. Hhhmf. Jesus. Hmmf.", it sounds to me like he's taking his
God-given abilities for granted. Perhaps the Powers Above need to give him a
little lesson in who is serving who.

About using miracles in public... I'm curious about that. I know that
Shamans are pretty treated like unclean heathen dark magic types, and so are
hucksters. What is the average person going to say when Father McDougall
heals shot up people in the middle of the street? What about the Agency and
the Rangers? I'm sure they don't take kindly to over displays of magical
powers by *anyone. I can't wait to get my hands on Way of the Righteous.
