The Priestess is a special Classical Age unit in Chronicles that can be trained at the Temple. It is a non-combatant unit who can convert others' units to the player's side, as well as heal allied units, except for ships and mechanical siege weapons. It can also collect Relics and deposit them in a Temple.
It is the equivalent of the Monk in Age of Empires II.
