Tech-Priest (5e Class)
From D&D Wiki
Tech-Priest
A Tech-Priest is an adept of the Adeptus Mechanicus of the Imperium of Man who is generally responsible for maintaining all of the advanced technology of the Imperium, enlarging the Imperium's stocks of technical knowledge and conducting what little new scientific research occurs within the Imperium since the end of the Horus Heresy.
Tech-priests are members of the Cult Mechanicus, the Cult of the Machine, a priesthood which forms an ecclesiastical hierarchy for the Cult Mechanicus of technicians, scientists, and religious leaders who believe that knowledge represents the only true divinity in the universe.
The Tech-priests provide the rest of the Imperium with its technicians, scientists and engineers. Though their bodies often incorporate many inorganic components as bionic replacements, Tech-priests are fully human, unlike the cybernetic Servitors created by the Adeptus Mechanicus that carry out most of the heavy labour for all of the Imperium's myriad organisations and enterprises.
Creating a Tech-Priest

One thing you want to ask yourself: How was your priest transported to this world? Was he launched into space with an off-course escape pod and crashed on this remote planet? Was there a horrible engine malfunction, or perhaps some sort of warp-fuckery that caused his teleportation to this realm?
