#REDIRECT [[Vorinism#Priesthood]]
Since the [[Hierocracy]] the Ardents have been forbidden from participating in politics, they also were not allowed to own anything and were themselves the property of a lighteyes.
 
They were also one of the only groups who did not have to be paid, along with the Parshmen. Even slaves had to be paid in Alethkar.
 
Ardents were the only people allowed to use [[Soulcasting]] [[Fabrial]]s and surrounded this practice with much mystery, Soulcastings were always performed at night and under heavy guard to prevent any other than Ardents and high-ranking lighteyes from viewing it so that few outside the Ardentia were even aware of how Soulcasting was performed.
 
They were not allowed to use Soulcasters on people.
 
They were also the only people allowed to use the Almightys other name ''Elithanathile'' or He Who Transforms.
 
Many male Ardents had shaved heads and long beards, most Ardents also wore grey robes.
 
 
Ardents were exempt from many aspects of custom in [[Alethkar]], especially any gender-specific customs for example female Ardents were not required to cover their [[Safehand]], they were allowed to eat both masculine and feminine foods, male Ardents could learn to read and they could both pursue masculine and feminine pursuits.
