Troubadour's Tunic
Description
A troubadour's tunic or a sutannir's coat (in Dawn and The Brass Coast respectively) is a beautiful, ornamented priestly garment that empowers ceremonies to both laud the virtuous and mark the unvirtuous. In Highguard and parts of The League it is known as a chorister's vestment and is considered a fine piece of clothing for a priest with a strong presence and a rousing voice. Both Navarr and Varushkan priests favour a more subdued coat, with a brightly coloured and decorated interior - not because they are modest, or afraid of calling attention to themselves, but because it allows them to move among the people unremarked until they are ready to declare what they have learnt about the deeds of their fellows.
A troubadour's tunic appeals both to those priests who judge the behaviour of others, and those who wish to inspire and recognise the deeds of the faithful. There are some who are suspicious of priests who take it on themselves to mark the souls of others; while there are some sinister individuals who deserve that suspicion, there are many more priests who expound the value of recognition and encouragement rather than punishment.
