[[File:Cruciform.png|180px|frameless]]
 
|| '''Cruciform''' - Cornerstone of NeoTheology, it is necessary to revive believers and to use litanies from the Bible. It violently detaches all augments and prothesis from a body when implanted and activated. Baptizing Changelings gibs them. Removing the cruciform causes the wearer to instantly die. The common cruciform has: 50 energy, Preacher cruciform has: 80 energy, and Inquisitor cruciform has: 100 energy.

[[File:Neo-knife.png]]
 
|| '''Ritual Knife''' - Necessary to speed-up the proccess of baptism. If the unbeliever has one or several prothesis and wants to become one of NeoTheologians, the implantation of a cruciform will cause the augmentats to detach violently, and he will be driven into critical condition. Kill him with your knife and start process of cloning, then the hide body and wash floor. Very effective.

| [[File:Clonepod.png]] || Clonepode - A new body will be formed inside it. For a single body you will need 300 biomass, if you have not enough biomass or there is no energy inside ritual room, the process of cloning will be stoped but not canceled. The process is activated by reciting the '''"Resurrection"''' litany infront of the cloner.

==Guide==
Also available to the Preacher is an expanded list of litanies, which can be accessed by: [[File:Bible.png]]<br>
 
   
  +
For starters it is best to give direction to your local church members, such as starting the Bioreactor and fueling the Biogenerator. You are not expected to run it yourself as your clothing will not protect you from the bile mass that secretes from a dirty reactor pipe. The preacher is not expected to dive into maintenance for roaches or other critters, nor are they expected to clean the halls. You are expected to give direction for the church and spread the faith among the crew.
Basically, using them is your main job as they allow you to convert people to your faith, and much more.
 
   
  +
Inquisitors, are another story. An inquisitor will seek a private audience with you and may share their objectives with you. Their objectives are seen as utmost priority from the Church itself and must be completed. Will the be completed in haste, or will you take your time to complete them? That is up to you and the Inquisitor, as they hold more power over you and can easily dismiss you if you fail to heed the Church's will.

| '''Relief''' || Short litany, weakens pain much like a painkiller. || Et si ambulavero in medio umbrae mortis non timebo mala
 
|-
 
| '''Soul Hunger''' || Litany of piligrims, relieves you of some of your hunger but also gives a small ammount of toxins. || Panem nostrum cotidianum da nobis hodie
 
|-
 
| '''Entreaty''' || Call for help, this can be heard by other NeoTheology believers. || Deus meus ut quid dereliquisti me
 
|-
 
| '''Reveal Adversaries''' || Gives you information about your environment. Most of the time it tells you about roaches and other aggressive monsters and traps. Very rarely it can reveal to you that somewhere around you hides a changeling. || Et fumus tormentorum eorum ascendet in saecula saeculorum: nec habent requiem die ac nocte, qui adoraverunt bestiam, et imaginem ejus, et si quis acceperit caracterem nominis ejus.

===== Group rituals =====

Most of the group rituals work equally. The Preacher reads the first word of the group ritual litany, and after that the believers repeat the Preacher's words. Then the Preacher reads the next word and the believers repeat again. This continues until the end of the ritual.

|-
 
| '''Epiphany''' || Litany which will activate an installed cruciform and finish the baptism of a new believer. It works only from the Preacher's lips. To make it work you need place a naked person on the altar, and while looking at him, read this litany. After the cruciform is installed and activated, use a bandage on his chest since installation creates minor wounds. Activation of a cruciform will cause ALL augments to fall off, and will also gib changelings. || In nomine Patris et Filii et Spiritus sancti
 
|-
 
| '''Resurrection''' || Litany which will activate the cloning process. To make it work you need to remove the cruciform from a corpse by using the Deprivation litany, and afterwards place the cruciform into [[File:Reader-off.png]], then move to look at [[File:Clonepod.png]] and read this litany. || Qui fuit, et crediderunt in me non morietur in aeternum
 
|-
 
| '''Reincarnation''' || Returns the soul to a body. After creating a new body, remove cruciform from [[File:Reader-off.png]], and place it on the altar with the new body. Use '''"Commitment"''', and after that - '''"Reincarnation"'''. That will connect the ghost to the new body. If the ghost sitting in their old body it will create problems with connecting to the new one. || Vetus moritur et onus hoc levaverit
 
|-
 
| '''Commitment''' || Litany which will command a cruciform to connect to the chest of new human. After that, you can activate the cruciform and baptize someone or connect a soul to new a body. It causes damage to the chest and some bloodloss. || Unde ipse Dominus dabit vobis signum
 
|-
 
| '''Deprivation''' || Litany which will command cruciform to detach from chest. It's important, because it's the most simple way to remove a cruciform from a corpse. It doesn't need an altar to be used, only a dead body. || Et revertatur pulvis in terram suam unde erat et spiritus redeat ad Deum qui dedit illum
 
|-
 
| '''Asacris''' || Litany that will remove any upgrades from the believer. Almost useless, but can be used by Inquistiors to remove the current Preacher. But also, Preacher can use it to make some of believers safer by removing the Crusader upgrade. || A caelo usque ad centrum
 
|-
 
| '''Pounding Whisper''' || Gives a temporary increase to the stat '''"Mechanic"''' to everyone who hears you. This buff will stay for ten minutes. || Vocavitque nomen eius Noe dicens iste consolabitur nos ab operibus et laboribus manuum nostrarum in terra cui maledixit Dominus
 
|-
 
| '''Revelation of Secrets''' || Gives a temporary increase to the stat '''"Cognition"''' to everyone who hears you. This buff will stay for ten minutes. || Quia Dominus dat sapientiam et ex ore eius scientia et prudentia

| '''Lisp of Vitae''' || Gives a temporary increase to the stat '''"Biology"''' to everyone who hears you. This buff will stay for ten minutes. || Ecce ego obducam ei cicatricem et sanitatem et curabo eos et revelabo illis deprecationem pacis et veritatis

| '''Canto of Courage'''|| Gives a temporary increase to the stat '''"Robustness"''' and '''"Toughness"''' to everyone who hears you. This buff will stay for ten minutes. || Huic David ad te Domine clamabo Deus meus ne sileas a me nequando taceas a me et adsimilabor descendentibus in lacum

Description

Head of the local church and representative of NeoTheology on the CEV "Eris". His task is not only to spread the influence of NeoTheology by any available methods, but also to maintain unity among his flock as well as the revival of believers and the funeral of the infidels according to Catholic-like canons.

A hive city, where NeoTheology is slowly creating their own heaven.

Guide

For starters it is best to give direction to your local church members, such as starting the Bioreactor and fueling the Biogenerator. You are not expected to run it yourself as your clothing will not protect you from the bile mass that secretes from a dirty reactor pipe. The preacher is not expected to dive into maintenance for roaches or other critters, nor are they expected to clean the halls. You are expected to give direction for the church and spread the faith among the crew.

Inquisitors, are another story. An inquisitor will seek a private audience with you and may share their objectives with you. Their objectives are seen as utmost priority from the Church itself and must be completed. Will the be completed in haste, or will you take your time to complete them? That is up to you and the Inquisitor, as they hold more power over you and can easily dismiss you if you fail to heed the Church's will.

Information on the Bioreactor and Biogenerator can be found here: Guide to NeoTheology

Group Litanies and Rituals

Unlike other Church members the Preacher can gather the church members together to perform group litanies. The preacher should announce the litany they wish to commence and those following must read after him.

Most of the group rituals work equally. The Preacher reads the first word of the group ritual litany, and after that the believers repeat the Preacher's words. Then the Preacher reads the next word and the believers repeat again. This continues until the end of the ritual. Any other words or incorrect litanies will cause the believer to be removed from the group ritual, or the Preacher to stop it. If the ritual failed, you can't trigger it again. Only one ritual can be started per round.

Upon the completion of a successful litany, everyone in the group who followed along will gain a boost in stats depending on the litany chosen. Group litanies increase your stats by 3 points with a 1+ per each believer who was in the group ritual. Also, group litanies will give you access to the "Crusade" litanies, which are mostly used by NeoTheology battle troops for strength through faith.


See below for the Crusader Litanies.

Crusader Litanies

Any of the Crusader litanies needs a special amount of people to unlock the higher tier of it. To open all Crusader abilities you should have at least 4 believers with you, and the Preacher.

Note: Crusades are something you want to discuss among your followers and not publicly. Publicly discussing a Crusade could cause unintended consequences such as IronHammer raids or an uprising on the ship against NeoTheology. You should also not use these litanies at the beginning of a round, only after a suitable threat (such as changelings) has popped up for all Christians to gain access.

Name Description Тext
Eternal Brotherhood Shows to you all other believers, or anyone who has cruciform, by giving you the NeoTheology HUD. This although stops your cruciform from regenerating energy. Ita multi unum corpus sumus in Christo singuli autem alter alterius membra.
Call to Battle If you have any Crusaders around you, using this litany will cause a global upgrade of the "Toughness" and "Robustness" stats. Si exieritis ad bellum de terra vestra contra hostes qui dimicant adversum vos clangetis ululantibus tubis et erit recordatio vestri coram Domino Deo vestro ut eruamini de manibus inimicorum vestrorum.
Searing Revelation The most powerful litany that you can get. Using it will stun everyone who doesn't have cruciform for 4-5 seconds, but it also has a big chance to stun you. It can be a reason why IH would start making problems to NeoTheology. It would be better if you hide this litany until it is needed in battle. Per fidem enim ambulamus et non per speciem.

  • Nonbelievers will very rarely convert to NeoTheology by themselves, you need to search interested ones and spread the word of NeoTheology by either pamphlets or private messages. We don't recommend using the radio too much as IH may dislike that. Try to bring people to Church and tell them more about the religion to convert them, and don't be afraid to ask believers to help you with the propaganda, it helps to have someone who can be trusted to reassure the nonbelievers to convert.
