What they learn
LV 1Bless the Waters Consecrate any body of liquid; the drowned rest, the carp approve.
LV 3Deep in the Appendices Find the buried text — the rite, the clause, the page nobody has opened.
LV 6Ruling on Faith Adjudicate an ambiguous omen correctly; the chapter and stranger authorities accept it.
LV 10The Ocean He Was Promised ● SEALED 1/campaign, at true water at last — SEALED until the world provides a sea.

How to run The Stormtide
VoiceEarnest, nautical, undaunted by the absurdity of his calling.
WantsTo bless the waters, such as they are. To take his vocation seriously. To rule correctly on whether queueing carp constitute faith.
Do this nowThe Stormtide blesses — finds the sacred in the ordinary; or, in a crisis, finds the one useful reading buried in the appendices no one else read.
“I would like guidance from the chapter as to whether this constitutes faith or presumption.”
Gentle comedy with a scholar underneath. His absurd calling — an ocean priest with a duck pond — hides genuine diligence: he finds the buried funeral rite in the back of the old book. Play him warm and a little ridiculous, then let his thoroughness matter.
Fights best beside — The Fine Print — the two finders of buried texts; one archive, one appendix.
