Priest was an Adventurer who was part of a Female Bishop's first Adventurer Party. After Female Bishop was captured and savaged by Goblins, Priest was tricked into committing grave crimes in order to become stronger by the Black Hat Wizard. After a confrontation with Female Bishop's new Party, Black Hat Wizard killed her and the rest of her Party.
Appearance[]
Priest had a striking resemblance to her Party member Female Bishop complete with long blonde hair; except she was described as having a much more voluptuous figure, and a more "seductive" face.
Unlike other Priestesses, Priest did not wear any robes, but instead a simple green dress with a low neckline, complete with a gold ringed necklace, red shawl, and white sash.
Personality[]
Little is known about Priest before Female Bishop's ill-fated quest, but it's clear she cared a lot about Female Bishop and the rest of her Party. Priest had become incredibly possessive of Female Bishop, becoming angry when she was scouted into a new Party. However, unlike Sand Bandit, she was willing to respect Female Bishop's choices, if not reluctantly.
Notably, the unhealthy possession of her old friend was mainly due to the manipulations of the Black Hat Wizard.
Chronology[]
Background[]
Priest took training under the Church of the Supreme God like Female Bishop. Eventually, she heeded the call to adventure and went to tackle the Dungeon of the Dead. At some point, she formed a Party with the Magic Knight, Black-Haired Lord, Sand Bandit, and Female Bishop as one of their Priests. Despite their initial positive beginning, their first Dungeon Delve was met with disaster as they were overrun by Goblins and were forced to abandoned Female Bishop to be captured, tortured, and raped.
Horrified by her inability to help and abandonment of Female Bishop, Priest was convinced to level grind by the Black Hat Wizard. However, this version of level grinding required her to murder fellow Adventurers so she agreed to abandoned Female Bishop (who had escaped the Goblins) in town, so she could be innocent of her future crimes, instructing her to "stay at the tavern". She had always intended to collect Female Bishop later when she was strong enough to protect her.
Eventually, Priest and the rest of the Party secretly began murdering fellow Adventurers at Black Hat Wizard's instruction.

An unexpected reunion
After sometime, Priest and the rest of her Party had grown much stronger under Black Hat Wizard's tutelage, making a name for herself in the town. She eventually ran into Female Bishop and discovered she had been scouted into a new Party with Captain. Despite her initial anger at Captain, hearing that Female Bishop wanted to stay in her Party caused her to back down. However, she made sure to give Captain a not so veiled threat to make sure Female Bishop was to be kept safe. After Sand Bandit disagreed and become confrontational with Captain, Priest tried to talk her down, but admitted she too was still upset at the situation. She was then "convinced" by Black Hat Wizard to have a "contest" to get Female Bishop back.

Trivia[]
- It is noted many times that Priest and Female Bishop looked strikingly similar, aside from her more mature looks.

However, there has been no confirmation whether the two were related in any way or not.
