Hybrid class of Fighter and Cleric. Isn't particularly as good as the parent classes in their dedicated areas of expertise (fighting or pure casting/channeling), but offers a good balance between them both. Making a warpriest into a more resourceful(yet not so resilient) "smart paladin". They have a few gimmicks. First, they can choose to deal a set amount of damage with any weapon (so if you want to make a whip warpriest because your god's kinky, you won't be horribly gimped.) Second, they pick two domains at creation and gain access to powerful buffs they can throw around based on the domain. Finally, they gain access to Fervor, which they can spend to either channel energy (healing or hurting based on the warpriest's alignment) or make spells insta-cast and not provoke attacks of opportunity. All in all, they've got good utility, and are pretty good frontline buffers and healers, while also dealing fair damage.
