Badass Preacher	comment	Praise the Lord â€” and pass the ammunition. A preacher who is a good fighter and who belongs to a church that isn't the Church Militant. He has the ability to literally kick arse for the Lord. Given his day job, he is likely to be a Technical Pacifist or a Martial Pacifist. If he is an Actual Pacifist, he will simply take every blow without flinching and dare you to hit harder. At most, this version will employ Deadly Dodging. He often looks like a Crouching Moron, Hidden Badass. Sometimes he's the Christian equivalent of the Papa Wolf. He'll kick in the door and blow away anyone who dares harm his flock/congregation/head of church. It makes sense. If we are to love our neighbor and do unto others as we would have them do unto us, most would want someone to come to their rescue if they were being beaten, robbed, or worse. Proverbs 24:11 says "Rescue those who are being taken away to death; hold back those who are stumbling to the slaughter" and so someone who is supposed to watch over their flock like a shepherd would take action. They would not only help the victims, but to help prevent the bad guys from doing something that they will possibly regret forever if and when they come to their senses. Most would want a true friend to do that for them so that they can experience a Heelâ€“Face Turn sooner and more easily, with less guilt on their minds, though Jesus can fix that problem. They may be someone who believes that fighting is okay under certain circumstances even when those above him in the church hierarchy don't, or someone who normally never fights who is forced to take action in an extreme situation. This trope applies to modern Catholics, Anglicans, many priests of Crystal Dragon Jesus, and Quakers. You rarely see Quakers in film without this trope getting invoked â€” though with that religion, the definition of "preacher" gets stretched. (So does the definition of "Quaker" â€” they're one of the few universally pacifist denominations.) If the clergyman had been a soldier, policeman, or the like before taking orders, it may overlap with Retired Badass. This trope does not apply to preachers in certain fundamentalist churches and rarely applies to priests of medieval Catholic churches. Those are covered under Church Militant and Warrior Monk â€” in those tropes the whole church is, or tries to be, badass. A Badass Preacher is a minority in his church hierarchy. If a badass person does not belong to a church hierarchy and is instead a pious layman, he's the Religious Bruiser. Related to Turbulent Priest who fights with his words. Subtrope of Real Men Love Jesus. Contrast with Sinister Minister who may be this man's Evil Counterpart. If the Lord Himself is kicking ass, that's Kung-Fu Jesus.

In Dragon Age: Inquisition, she moves on to become the Spymaster of the Inquisition and depending on your actions can even become the Divine (the setting's equivalent of the Pope). In Dragon Age II, Sebastian is a Prince of Starkhaven and Former Teen Rebel who found faith after being sent to the Chantry, becoming a brother. Should Hawke decide to spare Anders during the endgame however, he turns into a Church Militant and leaves the party, planning to return to Starkhaven and raise an army, so he can raze Kirkwall to the ground (a threat that he makes good on in Dragon Age: Inquisition).

Calm, unassuming men whose faithful speeches are able to hold an audience for hours? Check. Will grab holy water and a shotgun without thinking if a member of their flock is threatened by a monster? Check, check, check. On top of that, they only break out the firepower if they need to — they believe most monsters are capable of redemption and try to help convince them of the proper path. Then there are members of the Knights of the Brotherhood of St. George, who are an order within the Anglican Church devoted to fighting sorcerers. At least, until you find out what they really serve.

Badass Preacher / int_2192aeb3	comment	Fire Emblem: Since a good part of the backstories are rooted in the local myths and religions, we meet many badass preachers of both genders who join the groups either as healers or as fighters/offensive magic users. Sacred Stones gives us L'Arachel, Natasha and Father Moulder. The Jugdral games give us Edain, Claude, Edain's daughter Lana (and Mana) and a well-raised Corpul (and Sharlow) in Genealogy; and the well-raised Safy, Tina, and Sleuf in Thracia (And in the backstory, Bragi and Saint Maera). The Elibe games give us Saul (though he's also a Handsome Lech until it's time to get serious), Elen and Yoder in Binding Blade; and Lucius, Renault and potentially Serra in Blazing Blade (and Saint Elimine in the whole backstory). Fire Emblem: Awakening gives us Libra, the axe wielding war monk of Naga. He is a genuinely humble, faithful and devoted man of the cloth, and when he first appears as an NPC ally character during Chapter 9, he's likely to maul his way single-handedly through a significant chunk of the enemy units if the player doesn't hurry to recruit him. Really, the War Monk/Cleric class, which is Libra's default class is made out of this trope (and Combat Medic), even spawning the "NUNS WITH AXES!" meme in the fandom. By default, clerics and priests are non-combatants who can only heal their allies, at least until they get promoted. The War Monk/Cleric promotion allows healers to wield huge two-handed axes in combat against their enemies. Brady is one as well, except that he isn't as much into the preacher part. Fire Emblem: Three Houses gives us Rhea, the Archbishop of the Church of Seiros. She's a powerful Lady of War who wields swords and magic with equally strong proficiency, and is also shown to have skill with her fists. She's also Saint Seiros herself, who fought and defeated Nemesis with her fists.

Havel the Rock, famously one of the strongest and toughest fighters ever known, is also a bishop of the Way of White.

He does not put the gun down until the party have convinced him that they are not involved with the rubber trade. On the other hand â€¦ as well as protecting his flock's bodies from the rubber traders, he is also keen to save their souls from pagan religion. In the 21st century, we would call this eradicating native culture.

Badass Preacher / int_30876163	comment	In Blue Exorcist, demons are the enemies. Several characters fall into the category of Badass Preacher, from the gunslinging Yukio to the bible-reciting Bon (certain bible verses can banish demons. He recites the entire book of John at one in order to achieve certain victory) but the most notable and straightest example of the trope is Posthumous Character Shiro, who has spent his entire life resisting Demonic Possession by Satan and still finds time to be an excellent Exorcist, father and generally badass.

After everyone else in his hometown was turned into headcrab zombies, he made it his personal mission to "free them from their torment" ... by killing them all with death traps and his rifle Annabelle (to his credit, he tried to remove the headcrabs first, but went with the "kill em'all" idea since removing the headcrab kills his host). So well liked, he appears in a Half-Life 2 fan-made prequel.

Late in Unseen Academicals, it's revealed that Forgiveness, while he may have brought the concept as well, happens to be the name of his axe. And it's implied to be the same axe from Carpe Jugulum, which was transformed from a simple, ordinary axe, into a weapon that could hurt vampires, all because of his earnest faith. Preceded by 100 years by Brutha, the last believer in his god, who becomes first an Archbishop, and soon after a Prophet and the Cenobiarch (the absolute leader of the church). He then reinvents the whole church, turning it from basically a militaristic and totalitarian society into a religious debating house, by being purely Badass Pacifist!

A Mormon Missionary and the co-founder/former Legate of Caesar's Legion, after surviving being set on fire and tossed into the Grand Canyon by Caesar for losing the First Battle of Hoover Dam, he rekindled his faith and rejoined the Mormon Church. He now defends the Dead Horses tribe against the White Legs, still holding onto his fury and General Ripper tendencies. He remains entirely willing and able to murder the hell out of anyone who makes the mistake of threatening his fellow Mormons or the tribals in their care. Although depending on your actions he can be persuaded to show mercy and become less bloodthirsty, and he avoids the usual trappings of this trope by being very aware of his flaws and weaknesses. In terms of game mechanics, it seems his faith is a very good shield, because he can shrug off anything short of an anti-tank rifle (his DT is 50, the Courier has to wear Powered Armor to even reach 30) despite only wearing a bulletproof vest and some bandages. He's also a very good with that pistol of his, and can utterly murder the final boss of the DLC without your intervention. Evidently this is something of a commonality with the New Canaanites, as Joshua mentions that learning how to use a handgun is a rite of passage. His counterpart Daniel, while much more peaceful, is armed with a Tommy gun and is fully prepared to use it to protect the tribals under his care.

Badass Preacher / int_5e150650	comment	Exalted features as the foremost example the Zenith Caste of the Solar Exalted. They have access to Presence and Performance Charms that allow them to capture the hearts and souls of their audience, spreading the word of the Unconquered Sun and his virtues. They also have access to Integrity Charms that allow them to fend off the most intense of mental assaults, Resistance Charms that turn their bodies as hard as steel, and Survival Charms that make them capable of surviving in the desert for years. Oh, and their Anima burns the undead. Their corrupted equivalents, the Midnights (of the Abyssals) and the Malefactors (of the Infernals), are just like them, only twisted. The Midnights have the ability to raise the dead as mindless zombies and mostly serve the cause of Oblivion, whereas the Malefactors follow Cecelyne the Endless Desert and try to establish spiritual and physical wastelands based on the rule of strong over weak.

He is a genuinely humble, faithful and devoted man of the cloth, and when he first appears as an NPC ally character during Chapter 9, he's likely to maul his way single-handedly through a significant chunk of the enemy units if the player doesn't hurry to recruit him. Really, the War Monk/Cleric class, which is Libra's default class is made out of this trope (and Combat Medic), even spawning the "NUNS WITH AXES!" meme in the fandom. By default, clerics and priests are non-combatants who can only heal their allies, at least until they get promoted. The War Monk/Cleric promotion allows healers to wield huge two-handed axes in combat against their enemies. Brady is one as well, except that he isn't as much into the preacher part.

Badass Preacher / int_6ac55ec7	comment	The Cleric class in Dungeons & Dragons: Clerics are usually relegated to being the team Healer and general diplomatic representatives, (being preachers and all). Take the right domains, and you're filled with more Divine Wrath than a party of Paladins, even if your god is Olidamarra (god of trickery and general non-combatant). It helps that they have the 2nd best attack progression in the game and can cast Sodom-&-Gomorrah-style spells while stomping around in full-plate suits of Adamantine armor! And those who choose to worship someone like St. Cuthbert (the god of retribution) Heironeous (god of valor) to name just two, can kick some serious ass; clerics of both gods tend to be potent fighters. Clerics who worship Pelor (the god of the sun) aren't slouches either, and seeing as they can also have potent healing abilities, he's a popular choice. And if you decide to take a little feat called Divine Metamagic (Persist Spell) and start casting Divine Power,, you get the best attack progression in the game as well as casting the said death-from-on-high magic. Fourth Edition features the build known as the "Zap Cleric". Clerics who go around, as the article puts it, "Shooting People in the Face With Lasers." Clerics in Fifth Edition is considered one of, if not the most versatile class. Because they gain power from the god they worship, they have the highest number of subclasses, and a fair number of those (such as War, Forge and Tempest) are excellent physical fighters. Even Life-domain clerics can use heavy armor and deal good damage in physical combat. And that's only the physical stuff. The Light-domain turns a cleric into a fire-and-laser-spewing war machine.

Longinus has some pretty skewed views on religion, as shown when he asks "What gun would Jesus use?" despite Jesus being an advocate for peace, and he gives his guns nicknames based on Biblical passages and sometimes uses them to point at Ajay without checking if the safety catch is on, but there's no denying, he has a deep, confident voice and he's dedicated to his mission of atoning. As for "Badass", while we never see Longinus fighting anyone, he at one point goes stalking after a smuggler who obtained a box of blood diamonds that Longinus sold back when he was a warlord, and what does he take with him as ammunition?

Corbettite trains can, will, and on many occasions have shot their way through a wide variety of horrific constructs and clanks wandering the Wastelands that threatened their railways. The monks are so well regarded for their toughness that when the Old Heterodynes accidentally made something so dangerous that it scared them, they entrusted it to the Corbettites for safekeeping. And the monks were able to successfully extract concessions from them (which the Heterodynes actually honored for centuries) in return for doing so.

One of those people happens to be Father Moore (Darien and Kevin's childhood priest). He remains in control and no one notices anything unusual, until one of his Sunday School students confesses that his father (Joe) regularly beats him. Moore decides to go pay Joe a visit. After confronting him with this knowledge and talking about the pressure of knowing so many ghastly secrets that he could previously do nothing about, he nearly beats Joe to death. Moore is only stopped by Darien's intervention.

Badass Preacher / int_8d814070	comment	MAS*H: It didn't show that often, but Father Mulcahy had his moments, such as helping a wounded soldier relax and wait for treatment by punching him (the patient did throw the first punch), or convincing Greek and Turkish soldiers to stop arguing with a speech from "the book of Threats" as the clerk put it. He also disarmed a soldier who threatened him with a rifle at point-blank range once and once performed an emergency tracheotomy under enemy fire. He also routinely carried out potentially dangerous dealings with the black marketeers and in the series finale braved enemy shelling to bring a group of POW's into shelter at the cost of his hearing. He once rode in one stretcher pod of a helicopter to balance the single, badly wounded man in the other pod. He was so frightened, he was completely unaware that they had landed even after Col. Potter started talking to him, and had gripped the pod so tightly he was unable to release his own grip. When Frank Burns is accusing orphans of stealing in the OR, Potter asks Mulcahy to "help Major Burns scrub up." Mulcahy does this by twisting Frank's arm, bending it behind his back, and marching him out forcibly, causing Frank to yell "What are you DOING? Priests aren't supposed to hurt people!" He talks Klinger into handing him a live grenade with which he planned to blow up Frank, and later finds and re-inserts a pin into a grenade wielded by a patient in OR, saving everyone's bacon. "Ahh, there's nothing so relaxing as whomping the living daylights out of something!" Even though he felt a considerable amount of guilt afterwards, Mulcahy responds to being punched by a panicking soldier with a roundhouse punch of his own in the episde "Dear Sis." "I do believe people are essentially good...but sometimes you gotta put 'em in a half-nelson to get 'em to cough up."

Badass Preacher / int_9045b1b7	comment	World War Z offers at least two examples: The first, and most detailed, is an interview with an army chaplain who took it upon himself during the war to kill all infected soldiers (who were previously expected to kill themselves) as a holy mission. This leads to priests assuming positions of some power in Russia, which ends up as theocratic state after the war. The second is Sister Montoya, a hundred-pound, fifty-something nun who was apparently mid-lesson in a Sunday school class when zombies attack. The sister grabs a metal candle holder taller than she is and defends her young students by bashing some zombie heads in. She holds off the undead hordes for nine days before they are rescued by the army, in which she later enlists. This is an anecdote mentioned in passing, which should tell you a good bit about the badassery that happens in the rest of the book.

Badass Preacher / int_9d34190a	comment	The Elder Scrolls: In general throughout the series, badass priests and other religious leaders appear quite frequently, even outside of the more Church Militant organizations. Priests and the like are usually quite able to defend themselves, and many come with offensive spells to blast the non-believers and other threats. (Tamriel's Adventure Friendly and extremely dangerous nature largely justify the need for even servants of the gods to be able to defend themselves.) Martin and Jauffre in Oblivion. Both are priests who are clearly competent in combat, with the former being the heir to the throne and the latter the former leader of the Blades, the emperor's personal bodyguards and spies. Since the Order of Talos often overlaps with the Blades, it's to be expected that any Cyrodiilic Talos preacher could be a secret badass. In Skyrim, Erandur is a priest of Mara (and former worshiper of the Daedric Prince Vaermina). Equally dangerous with his fire spells and mace, he is one of the most heavily used followers in the game.

An Orthodox priest could certainly be an ex-special ops veteran or somesuch, and both willing and quite able to kick a blasphemer's sorry behind into orbit.

Every one of these warrior-priests is a trained soldier, but they are also clad in heavy powered armor and typically armed with either a flame-projector or a laser rifle. Brother-Captain Allen in particular is a stand-out example, as not only will he kill you for breaking the laws of the Brotherhood, but he'll do it by yelling out your offenses while smashing your head on a wall, and then throw you out a very high window.

Badass Preacher / int_b30ae4db	comment	Game of Thrones: Thoros of Myr mixes combat with spreading the good news about the Lord of Light. Aeron Greyjoy. It's not very clear, but back in Season 1, Tyrion says Theon's uncles were responsible for the destruction of the Lannister fleet and the burning of Lannisport, the absolute high mark of the First Greyjoy Rebellion. Euron and Aeron are Theon's only uncles, so it stands to reason Aeron is (or was) one Hell of a reaver. In the books, Euron came up with the plan to burn Tywin's fleet at anchor, but Balon's other brother Victarion carried it out. Victarion was cut from the TV show. Aeron did take part in the battle in the novels, but only as the commander of his own ship. The line that "your uncles were responsible" was intentionally ambiguous, so the TV show could later say that Tyrion meant that both Euron and Aeron were involved in some fashion, without needing to introduce Victarion.

He is one of, if not the, strongest characters in the story due to a combination of his great prowess at pymary, the setting's magic, and his physical combat skills that came from his time in the military. Combine that with his supernatural strength and immunity to pain due to being undead, and you have an almost unstoppable warrior. He is also one of the most devout characters in the story and was a high ranking priest before he died. Even in death he remains very devout despite his continued existence as a (sentient) zombie being considered an abomination to his religion.

Alma the Younger, as well as being the high priest over the whole church, fights Amlici in personal combat and kills him, ending his rebellion. Ammon the son of Mosiah goes as a missionary into Lamanite lands and serves their king as a shepherd. He faces an entire band of robbers at once, killing six of them with a sling and then using his sword to cut the arms off any of them that try to close the range, "and they were not few in number." The king is very impressed by his feat, but Ammon gives God the credit and pivots into teaching him the gospel. Mormon, the primary editor of the book and a prophet, is also chosen as the supreme leader of the Nephite armies at the age of sixteen. He's only able to preach to his own people on a few selected occasions, because the rest of the time they're so wicked that God refuses to send him out, but he uses the book as an opportunity to exhort the reader, until finally his armies are wiped out and the Lamanites hunt him down and kill him.

Her religion is based on "motion," encouraging all people, regardless of morality, to actively satisfy and fight for their desires rather than remain stagnant and submissive, and her method of preaching her wisdom is beating the crap out of you until you learn to fight for your life. Nagakabouros is not a gentle god.

The cross on his chest is a "mortification of the flesh" deal, as well as causing him pain so he doesn't focus on the urge to drink blood. As for the badass part, see his Crowning Moment Of Awesome. Then there's his most prominent enemy, the also religiously themed Deacon. The Crossbreed is a team of Christian-themed superheroes.
