This sturdy garment is often made of soft wool treated with beggar's lye and dyed in rich colours. It often bears a hood, and is commonly designed to be worn over other clothing - or even armour on some occasions. It is favoured by priests who serve as spiritual advisors, especially to military units, and in some places it is called a ''robe of the padre'' (or a ''robe of the mater''). Priests whose congregation are in greatest need of spiritual strength appreciate it's potence - most often by giving blessings of strength and resolute piety to bolster them whether on the battlefield, or in the [[Imperial Senate|Senate]].

Description

This sturdy garment is often made of soft wool treated with beggar's lye and dyed in rich colours. It often bears a hood, and is commonly designed to be worn over other clothing - or even armour on some occasions. It is favoured by priests who serve as spiritual advisors, especially to military units, and in some places it is called a robe of the padre (or a robe of the mater). Priests whose congregation are in greatest need of spiritual strength appreciate it's potence - most often by giving blessings of strength and resolute piety to bolster them whether on the battlefield, or in the Senate.

This priestly robe was traditionally called a wayfarer's chasuble. A chasuble was a pilgrim's garment popular among pre-Imperial Highborn priests. This took the form of a circle or oval of cloth, a little like a poncho, with a hole in the middle for the head, falling on all sides nearly to the ground and gathered up to allow the arms to be used freely. Often made of tough wool, sometimes treated with ambergelt to make it waterproof. It's association with pilgrimages and thus itinerant preachers lead to it being further associated with several early Chapters. The popularity of the chausable grew as the Way spread, but over time it fell out of fashion. Today the use of the chausable has been largely replaced by the use of robes.
