Priests derive their power to perform miracles from their divine patron rather than from risking their own soul through magic. A priest's mana pool represents the small amount of divine energy given to them by their god, which they can use to invoke prayers and perform miracles. The size of a priest's mana pool depends on their career path and magic attribute. Performing miracles uses mana points that are deducted from this pool. Priests can recover mana points naturally over time or through worship and meditation.
