Appearance and opulence may be more important than faith to the congregations of Pinnacle. Social Class: Middle class
The temples of Pinnacle serve more of a social function than a religious one. The priests are typically experts with no divine abilities. The primary duties of a Pinnacle priest are managing donations, ensuring that the people who pay the most get prominent seating during services, and performing formal (if ultimately meaningless) blessings at the parties and galas of the wealthy. The one exception is the Temple of Balinor; while it happens to have been built in Pinnacle, its priests are dedicated and its services draw the faithful from across Sharn.
Temples and Shrines
The Pinnacle district is home to several temples and shrines, including those dedicated to the Sovereign Host, Silver Flame, Aureon, Balinor, Boldrei, and Kol Korran. These religious sites are adorned with precious metals and jewels, reflecting the opulence and wealth of the district.
Temple of Balinor
The Temple of Balinor stands out among the other religious institutions in Pinnacle due to the dedication of its priests and the genuine faith of its congregation. Although it is located in the heart of a district focused on appearances and social standing, the Temple of Balinor attracts worshippers from all over Sharn, who come seeking spiritual guidance and connection with the deity.
Priests and Services
In contrast to the Temple of Balinor, the other religious institutions in Pinnacle primarily serve social functions. The priests in these temples often lack divine abilities, focusing instead on managing donations, providing prominent seating to wealthy patrons, and offering blessings at social events. Despite their ornate exteriors, the religious services at these institutions may be more about appearances than genuine spiritual devotion.
