Pathfinder First Edition content This article covers a class that is relevant to the Pathfinder campaign setting only in the context of the first edition of the Pathfinder Roleplaying Game.

This article covers the Pathfinder First Edition class from the Advanced Class Guide. For the Second Edition warpriest cleric sub-class, see cleric.

Warpriests, like paladins, fight in the name of their deity. Unencumbered by the same devotion to law and good, however, they may serve any deity, and their moral code more closely matches the divine power they serve. Much like clerics, warpriests can channel powers from their faith but prefer to apply such powers through deadly use of their weapons in the midst of combat.

Regions

Warpriests are common in battleworn regions, such as the Hold of Belkzen, Lastwall, Nirmathas, Mendev, and Molthune. However, their potent combination of divine power and martial strength also makes them valuable in:

• Andoran, where warpriests of Erastil and Torag fight within the Golden Legion and followers of Cayden Cailean often join the Steel Falcons
• Cheliax, particularly among Hellknights and the Order of the Godclaw
• Lastwall, which recruits warpriests of Iomedae and Pharasma to combat undead threats
• the Red Mantis, where warpriests of Achaekek strive to become his perfect instruments of death
