Supreme Cleric Hughnon Ridcully

## Description

Hughnon Ridcully is the current Supreme Cleric of Garl Glittergold, the highest ranking Cleric of his faith. As such, he can command all lower ranked Clerics and has the privilege of calling the Big Prank in Onkh-Morpark, Garl's main temple, his seat of office. His position also affords him a seat on the Council of 116 and, as leader of the largest denomination in the city, he also often serves as the informal spokesperson for all faiths in matters of religion.

In truth, he is mostly a bureaucrat in priestly vestments. Ridcully is an organizer, an executive. While his co-religionists tend to burn with evangelical fervor, Hughnon's flame is as low as any can be. His job is to see that the temple's bills are paid, the windows cleaned and the faith's coffers fattened. He can deliver a sermon of the usual platitudes whenever required, but he won't spend any time actually fussing about the flock's immortal souls. His religion serves to provide him with a comfortable and prestigious job. Despite this, he is a formidable Cleric in his own right, albeit not as much as he could have been had he spent more time gaining power or his deific patron's favor.

Hughnon Ridcully is a male Gnome of seemingly old age with long greying hair and an equally long handlebar mustache. He generally wears the gilded priestly robes that come with his station. Despite his youth of hunting trips with his older brother and the expectation of Clerics to maintain physical fitness, Hughnon favors the finer things in life. While he is not a slob in the physical department, his girth has seen a substantial increase.

His brother Mustrum is the Archchancellor of Unseen University. While Onkh-Morporkian Wizards and Clerics are traditionally at odds due to philosophical differences, neither Ridcully is of a particularly philosophical frame of mind, and they get along famously.
