Oh boy, in a #thedarkeye chat, the old "I'm a cleric of the war goddess, why does nobody RESPECT MAH AUTHORITEH" argument resurfaces.
How do you handle that in your #ttrpg games? Clerics and the like often are members of organized churches with plenty of worldly might, plus plenty of *literal* divine powah. A desire to be treated differently is justifiably, from an in-game, simulationist point of view.
Alas, this immediately triggers my "nerd power fantasy" GM-sense.
