Canoness

A Canoness is a senior leader within a religious or military order dedicated to a particular faith or cause. In historical contexts, especially within Christian monastic or military communities, a Canoness typically holds a respected position, responsible for spiritual guidance, discipline, and administrative duties among members. They often lead prayer, support charitable activities, and maintain the traditions of their community. While the term has historical roots, it is also used in modern fiction and role-playing settings to describe a character with authority, leadership, and a strong dedication to their sacred or organizational principles.
