Az'atta forbids weapons for her clergy because she prefers her clergy not to kill or [[harm]] anyone. That is not to say they are not trained to defend themselves. [[Az'atta]] knows there are times when her people must defend themselves or those whom they have promised to protect from the violent and aggressive nature of others. Each hopeful is trained in the way of unarmed combat, usually in the style of the locality the temple exists in. Az'atta's clergy are never permitted to strike first. It is ingrained in them during their training that there is always a peaceful solution until the enemy strikes them. They may not, under any circumstances, use [[poison]]. This last teaching, if violated, is an offense that will sever Az'atta from her faithful immediately. | Az'atta forbids weapons for her clergy because she prefers her clergy not to kill or [[harm]] anyone.

Many of her clergy take this a step further and proudly weave the colors of Az'atta's symbol into their clothing as well. All are encouraged to add their own personal touch, and no particular uniform is adopted by any temple. Because this makes Az'atta's clergy an easy mark for those who oppose her, it must be noted that this could put them in danger. | Many of her clergy take this a step further and proudly weave the colors of Az'atta's symbol into their clothing as well.
