Raven priest

The raven priests are a shadowy priesthood within the Scarlet Onslaught. They were founded after the dreadlord Mal'Ganis, disguised as Grand Admiral Westwind, claimed to have heard the Holy Light whisper "a new blessing" to him in his sleep and passed it on to High Abbot Landgren. This prompted some of the Onslaught's members to convert to the priesthood and become known as raven priests.The Path of Redemption (Updated version) / The Diary of High General Abbendis Landgren added the new "blessing" to the ends of prayer books.Bishop Street's Prayer BookWithout a Prayer
The priesthood's ranks consist of Raven Priests, Raven Bishops, and Raven Archons. Although they preach about the Holy Light,Bishop Street#QuotesOnslaught Raven Bishop#Quotes the raven priests are always in :shadowform, accompanied by shadowy images of ravens, and use shadow magic to summon flocks of ravens as a way to attack enemies or heal themselves.Onslaught Raven Priest#Abilities, Onslaught Raven Bishop#Abilities, Onslaught Raven Archon#Abilities They are responsible for resurrecting dead soldiersLet Them Not Rise!Blighted Last Rites and administering blessings of the Light to their fellow Onslaught members, but these blessings appear to be tinged with shadow magic. Most sinister of all, the Raven Archons transform into demonic Unholy Archons when near death.
Not all Onslaught priests became raven priests; both Inquisitor Ward and the heretical Mariella Ward and Onslaught Apostates continued using the Light in the conventional way.
