Holy Prophecy (Holy Names)

== Ordo Prophets: ==
"This is The Word of The Lord God, heed it or suffer the consequences..."
Prophets are one of the oldest and most iconic of Adept Orders.  From time imemorial there have been those who sought out instructions from God or who The Lord had gifted with prophetic insight in order to lead the public to salvation.
The primary abilities of a Prophet are simple: prophetic revelations and insight.  The Lord may at any time grant prophecy, either in the form of a revelatory vision, a word of insight into a situation, a sign of what decision to make, etc.  Such prophecies can be either simple and straightforward, or they can be cryptic and require interpretation.  The one thing a prophecy from God always has is the seal of immutability, what The Lord says will happen always comes to pass somehow...
Being a prophet is far from rosy, however, in addition to revelations most Prophets were calle upon by The Lord to perform miracles, commit acts of public penance (of a usually unorthodox flare, the better to grab the people's attention), and confront wayward kings and leaders.  The life of a Prophet is to know real power and influence, but such power will require stoicism, sacrifice and unflinching faith in God.
AKA: the Word of The Lord, the Farseeing.
Prophet Degrees
=== Facts: ===
-Prophets act as the Adept's lifeline to the source of what they are, therefore they are given a high rank in any Squad.  
-Prophets are God's personal spokespersons, and a curse to anyone who harms the king's messengers.  
-Prophets may work together in small communal groups called schools, or they may act alone.  Some prefer to disguise themselves while journeying to a new region, while still others will arrive with the full pop and fanfare of the local Adepts.
-Messianic Judaism is the number one Tribe for producing Prophet Adepts. Considering how many prophets they've had, is it any wonder?
-A common form of decision making among Nazoreans is to cast lots. This is more then simply pulling straws, prayers are said and petitions made to God for His' guidance in the casting of lots. The idea is that the casting itself is a method for seeing which decision God favors.
-Prophets have a long tradition of Nazirites, since ancient times there have been groups or schools of practicing Prophets have existed in small, excluded groups together. 
=== Bible Code: ===
A portion of the Order of Prophets believe that contained with the Bible itself (particularly the Pentateuch or first five books of the Old Testament) is a special code of supernatural (even Divine) origin. This Bible Code, when correctly interpreted, can reveal startlingly accurate details into future events, even far distant ones.
