“The Orator’s words cleanse us from evil, as his whip scourges away our sin and guilt.”
“The Penitent’s eyeless gaze watches us for any trace of wrongdoing, and his tools ensure our sins are justly punished.”
This is part of a larger Vis-dev project that I completed for my class' Summer vis-dev mod. The Clergy are the enemies of DEATH/MARK, and the Orator and the Penitent are two of the various types of Clergy that Corvin must fight through in the game. Their vestments are based on Catholic vestments, especially the chasuble for the Orator. The Penitent’s hat, as well as the three segmented sections of their outfits are to tie their shared association of ants with the Holiest. Their weapons in their normal form are shared with their weapons in their mutated forms, mostly based on torture and flagellation tools used for self-mortification.
