 Takri is a Psychopomp Usher, interested only in guiding souls safely to the judgement and afterlife.  She doesn't judge them, and she has no bias against worshippers of any divine power.  It doesn't matter whether the souls go to one of the upper planes, lower planes or any other destination that is suitable for them, it only matters that they get to their eternal judgement safely.   She has a minor interest in guiding the living through their life, but that is an 'extra' that her priests practice to show their own good intent. Takri is a Psychopomp Usher, interested only in guiding souls safely to the judgement and afterlife.  She doesn't judge them, and she has no bias against worshippers of any divine power.  It doesn't matter whether the souls go to one of the upper planes, lower planes or any other destination that is suitable for them, it only matters that they get to their eternal judgement safely.   She has a minor interest in guiding the living through their life, but that is an 'extra' that her priests practice to show their own good intent.

 There are three different denominations of Takri Worshippers, each with their own origin stories and their own ways of doing things. However, rituals are similar, and the main purpose is the same.  Priests of the three denominations consider themselves to be part of one overarching church, and understand that they all get their spells from one divine source.  The main differences are in the communities they serve, and the way their followers - after all, most priests are drawn from the community they serve. There are three different denominations of Takri Worshippers, each with their own origin stories and their own ways of doing things.

 **Followers:** Takri does not have many dedicated followers but most Mourners (during funerals)  & Navigators (when they make a reading) will say a prayer, and make a small sacrifice, to her. In Sakhar, she is often petitioned for a moment or two of freedom, although she is rarely the main deity of anyone - even the slaves. **Followers:** Takri does not have many dedicated followers but most Mourners (during funerals)  & Navigators (when they make a reading) will say a prayer, and make a small sacrifice, to her.

-**Priests :**  Takri’s priests are tasked with aiding travellers, both in life and death.  They are mainly Navigators and Guides, with a few adventurers thrown in for good measure.  Takri's Priests have access to two we spells:  Summon Psycopomp (L1) & Hero's Grave (l3) - both of which can be found [[pathfinder:spells:start|here]].+**Priests :**  Takri’s priests are tasked with aiding travellers, both in life and death.  They are mainly Navigators and Guides, with a few adventurers thrown in for good measure.  Takri's Priests also have access to two new spells:  Summon Psycopomp (L1) & Hero's Grave (l3) - both of which can be found [[pathfinder:spells:start|here]].  These are not bonus, or domain spells, but must be learned in the same way as any other spell.
  
 Most of Takri’s priests are multi-classed, and their priestly class is often the junior class.  Examples might include the farmer who assists at the local cemetery, who could be commoner-3/adept-1), the guide for the travelling show might be Bard-2/Cleric-1, an undead hunter might be Fighter-3/Inquisitor-2, a ship's navigator might be an Expert-2/Adept-2, while a pirate ship navigator might be Fighter-2/Cleric-2.  Adventuring PCs can be single class, or multi-class, as they choose. Most of Takri’s priests are multi-classed, and their priestly class is often the junior class.  Examples might include the farmer who assists at the local cemetery, who could be commoner-3/adept-1), the guide for the travelling show might be Bard-2/Cleric-1, an undead hunter might be Fighter-3/Inquisitor-2, a ship's navigator might be an Expert-2/Adept-2, while a pirate ship navigator might be Fighter-2/Cleric-2.  Adventuring PCs can be single class, or multi-class, as they choose.
