Exorcists

## About

* The life expectancy of an exorcist was generally twenty. **Ch 17**
* While the Sun Country called them Exorcists. In some other countries, they had different names and structures, like; Knights, Monster Hunters, Shamans, etc. They still had the same rankings of Junior, Senior, Expert, Elite, and Special. Though most bigger countries still called them Exorcists. Britannia was the only big country that doesn't call them Exorcists. However, there were other parts of the world where they called them Wizards. **Ch 72**
* Humans and their special abilities, they never change. Though the exorcists nowadays sure have gotten weaker, two thousand years ago, they actually posed a threat. **Ch 129**

### Perks

* An exorcist will have the freedom to do almost anything once they're out in the world. In some cases, the government will even ignore the murder charges. Though if you kill too much, you'll be declared as a rogue exorcist (**Ch 4**). If you're a strong exorcist, even if you were a bit crazy, authorities would try and cover your bad deeds so they could keep you in their country (**Ch 17**).
	+ Human Controlling abilities are an absolute exception to this seeming immunity to the law. **Ch 7**
* Exorcists got paid a lot. After all, they put their lives on the line for each mission. With so much money, many thought it would stop most exorcists from abusing their power to do criminal activities. **Ch 124**

## Abilities

* Rituals, talismans, and barriers that ward off evil spirits. These three are the basics of the basics that every exorcist needs to know how to do. Some of these can also make up for the weakness any of their Exorcist Abilities might have. **Ch 7**
* With special abilities becoming more prominent, talismans were slowly becoming more obscure. **Ch 133**

### Talismans

* Most people didn’t know about Ord. Though the average person knew about talismans and that’s how they assumed Exorcists dealt with demons. **Ch 33**
* Special abilities and talismans helped humans immensely. But they paved the way for a strange technological development.
Suppose there was a genius in this world who could develop something that did DNA analysis. Instead of going the regular route like in my last world, they would concentrate on making a talisman with DNA analysis rather than the machine itself.
It was the same with weapons of war. Why invent the grenade when there was a talisman with the same effects? **Ch 79**
* Created by the **Golden One** who lived 2,000 years before Wisteria's ancestor. He also declared that exorcists should wait for their special abilities to manifest instead of creating them. **Ch 207**

## Junior Exorcist

* Awaken your Ord
* those who can’t control Ord, and are mentally unstable will have their Ord sealed. Since they might create an ability that could hurt themselves or those around them. **Ch 14**

## Senior Exorcist

* create your ability and master it somewhat
* there’s only an early time frame of time where someone’s Ord can be safely sealed by talismans. If someone develops a Special Ability, sealing their Ord would require another Special Ability. **Ch 14**

### Known Senior Exorcists

* Miku
* Mr. Bear
* Germa

## Expert Exorcist

* to qualify for the Expert Exorcist exam, one had to take part in and complete at least ten missions.
* they have the authority to command up to three exorcists of lower rank.
* If you passed the Expert Exorcist Exams, you would get an epithet. Also, you would be above most laws.

### Known Expert Exorcists

* Yara
* Rena
* Mr Fort
* Dr Aki

## Elite Exorcist

* someone who had proven his talents and could take a high-class demon one-on-one
* An Elite Exorcist oversees a territory, usually a town or city, or in some rare cases, a whole region. **Ch 143**
* It was necessary to have other exorcists as subordinates to assist with management. Usually, this arrangement involved mentorship, with more experienced exorcists training those who were less skilled. **Ch 173**
	+ Achieving the rank of Elite Exorcist in one's 30s was considered talented, but reaching it in one's 20s held the potential for becoming a Special Exorcist. **Ch 175**

### Known Elite Exorcists

* Professor Chain
* Gem
* Anika
* Sei
* Agon

## Special Exorcist

* only 22 positions exist in the world
* they can't be forced as they could just move to another country that would comply with their requests. But usually Special Exorcists handle the big cities, like the capital city, or places where influential people meet or live in.
* Special Rank Exorcists had overpowered abilities. **Ch 53**
* Every powerful country had its own Special Exorcists. If a Special Exorcist appeared in a smaller country, stronger countries would bribe them behind the scenes to move to theirs. **Ch 97**
* A Special Rank Exorcist was already rare enough, as shown how the Raion Clan despite being one of the major clans didn't have someone with that rank. **Ch 138**
* After a certain ranking, Special Exorcists are complete weirdos. You usually need to be fucked up in the head somehow to have your Ord reach that level. **Ch 138**
* they are seemingly named after the Major Arcana of Tarot.
* The Special Exorcist system was outdated, still in place only because the first generation of special exorcists were friends of the current Saint. We were all participating in this because the Saint wanted to indulge in melancholy and the people who wanted such a system gone were too weak to do anything about it. **Ch 213**
