Elias Craig
One of god’s chosen vessels, Elias Craig has heard soft, guiding whispers since he was a youth, urging him to do good, heal the sick, and remedy the world of its violence. His capacity to divinely heal and protect is remarkable, especially for a man of his age, and as such, Elias joined the church.
With the onset of the War, Elias was pulled into the chaos of brother-fighting-brother, and lost his way for some time. However, as an adult, he has settled in Kansas, found peace away from the roar of battle, and began to hear the guiding whispers once more. They tell him to: Find his sister, Save a Gentlemen, and Kill the Devil. It appears god has a plan for Elias.

Confession (2/Day). Elias commands a target to prostrate itself and confess its sins. One creature Elias can see within 30 feet of him must make a DC 15 Wisdom saving throw or begin confessing for 1 minute. A target that confesses can’t move from its space, can’t lie, and become non-hostile to Elias. The target can reattempt its saving throw each time it takes damage. Creatures with an Intelligence of 3 or less and creatures that have no concept of sin or taboo are unaffected by this ability.
