The Clergymen

Lincoln Howard Jr

In a world where every monster born of myth and legend hides in the shadows and the power of God can be channeled through man; five individuals solve supernatural cases in the name of the Church. The Clergymen is a Radio Drama that takes place in a 20th Century fictional Europe. It follows a group of five individuals who make up the titular Clergymen. Ezra - the group's prophetic leader- serves as a spiritual guide and Shepherd of the Eleventh Flock of the Clergymen. Silas, Ezra’s oldest friend and confidant, serves as the father figure of the group. Silas’ keen sense of perception makes him constantly sought after for his advice and has him fill in the role of the detective. Herodias is what is known as a lamb, in that she is supposed to be sacrificed for the group. As a lamb she commits the sins for the Clergymen whenever they find they need to for the greater good of the Church. Elijah is the youngest member of the eleventh order. A pious and curious child Elijah is a conduit of God and therefore has his prayers answered quickly and literally answered by God. Finally, the last and most recent member of the group is Alister, a man who joined the group in the pursuit of revenge against the man the Clergymen follow, a being simply called the Undertaker who leaves entire cities empty in his wake. The initial story – The Immortal Woman – has little to do with the Undertaker and focuses on the small town of Durinbar where every night the Bishop who governs the town has the same woman killed for her witchcraft. Yet every night the witch walks the streets once more unscathed. In addition to This Immortal woman’s apparent death every night, each time she appears another man goes missing. Now Bishop Edmund Martin and his congregation seek out the aid of the Clergymen to help solve the mystery of the Immortal Woman.
