Jacoban Watcherism

Jacoban Watcherism follows the theological doctrines of the Jacoban branch of Watcherism.

### Doctrine

#### Theism

Jacobans worship the Watcher, a monotheistic deity. The Jacobans interpret the Watcher as a fear-inducing God.

#### Beliefs

Yacothia is equivocal to Jerusalem to Jacoban Watcherism. The Jacobans believe that through fear, one attains faith. Jacoban priests may marry and have children, as well as have clergy of both genders. While anybody can become a member or be proselytized, priests from the other religion cannot be converted under any circumstance. Both churches encourage donations. Children will only have a religious opinion upon adulthood.

#### Worship

In addition to utilizing fear during mass, followers and priests alike perform pilgrimages in the Jacoban faith. They also have proclamations, which function like announcements.

#### Leadership

Jacobans are led by the Yacothian order of priests, whose ranks are, from greatest to least powerful, the Jacoban Proxy, the Eyes of Jacob, a High Shepherd(ess), and a Shepherd(ess).

### History

The Jacobans were founded by a figure named Jacob.
