hey there all, i have a question for ya, as some would know i play Darius Voy'chaveik, a Priest of Sharess.the Sharess clergy there is Clerics and Speciality Priest called Sensates

my question is, would it be better to wait for some sort of dm thing in order to gain such a rank i guess you would say?

The Sensates are an organization in the City of Doors. They do have Sharessans in their organization but I've never heard of it being a rank within the Sharessan church. What is your reference material?

oh, i used the word rank for people to get like a idea on what i was asking, i got my info fron this site

www.geocities.com/echaecha/adnd/d-sharess.html

That site appears to be non-specific to Forgotten Realms, however since we don't offer the class sensate, saying the character was a Sensate of Sharess would equate to no more than a title. Since Sharess' church is not organized into a heirarchy, my interpretation would be that any cleric who wished could call himself/herself a sensate.

The Sensates are an organization in Planescape that seeks to indulge in absolute hedonism. They do have Sharessans in their ranks but they are not limited to Sharessans in Planescape.

In that context, a Sensate is not always a Sharessan, and a Sharessan is not always a Sensate. In Forgotten Realms the Sensate organization doesn't actually exist per se. (Unless a Sensate happens to drop by from another plane and found a local branch.)

I personally would discourage the use of the term Sensate as related to Sharess since it's an extra-planar organization, but like I said, in the context of FR, it's just a title and Sharessan clerics are basically at liberty to pick their own titles.
