Cultist Acolyte

Heretical fanatics devoted to their Eldritch god, the Cultist Acolyte is a Human enemy that can be encountered in any area, usually with Cultist Brawlers and always in the third and fourth ranks. While unable to inflict the brute force of their male counterparts, the Acolyte assaults the mind instead of the body, dealing high stress damage with their unholy incantations, which also mark targets from Veteran Level onwards to strengthen a Brawler's rend. They can also sow confusion by altering the party's formation. It is best to end these heathens quickly to limit the stress inflicted on your heroes and the damage from other foes.
