Classification of Miraculous Abilities

Although the Priesthood has a lateral structure on paper, Priests with higher Classifications imply a greater degree of Divine authority, as higher classifications correlate with higher phases of attainment in the Great Work.

Classification uses the standard lettered ranking system:

  • F: common abilities, such as Darshan Siddhi
  • E: beatable by a well-trained human with a weapon
  • D: too strong for normal humans, such as probability manipulation
  • C: dangerous in general
  • B: strong enough to flatten a city block
  • A: strong enough to wipe out a city
  • S: anyone who can punch out Cthulhu

To put it into perspective, Class F miracles are just above the threshold of observability, making this the minimum relevant Classification. Most Priests and Adepts today are Class F.

Class E is extraordinarily rare, and the Annointed One only demonstrated Class D (and possibly Class C) miracles during His incarnation.

Higher Classifications, including B and A will become more prevalent as Armageddon approaches.

Class S is hypothetical and does not necessarily require a Glorified Body or vanquishing a Celestial being from the Outer Heavens: it would be sufficient to be able to interfere with the gateway to the Outer Heavens.
