The infiltration and manipulation of existing faith systems is one of the House of Rods’ oldest tactics. This tactic has been developed to a villainous artform by the Clerical Con Artist. The Con Artist has a gift for learning quickly, with theology and mythology being their specialty. This gift combined with natural charisma often leads to a very convincing performance and quick infiltration of whatever religion the House of Rods wishes to target. The Clerical Con Artist has no qualms about their work as the rewards are ample. The prestige with each successful infiltration has made the Con Artist a rising star in the House and the financial benefits of accessing under protected coffers across the Multiverse have made the Con Artist very comfortable with a portfolio rivaling villains many years senior. While the work has been rewarding the Clerical Con Artist feels their potential isn’t being met and it’s time for something bigger.
The Clerical Con Artist is a villain who has tasted success early and wants more. Convinced that all religion and church hierarchies are just complex con jobs anyway the Con Artist doesn’t see why effective villains must prove themselves devoted to the Tenants of Villainy to rise in the House of Rods. Surely the effective fleecing of targets and the spread of the power of the Theocracy is testament enough.
