A Virian Initiate is a member of the congregation of the Church of Virus in good standing, having a reputation above 5 up to and including 6 as determined by Meridion[1].
Origin: one being taught the principles of a religion.
The primary task of any Virian Initiate should be to interact with other Virians, particularly the Virian Luminaries, with a view learning and increasing their reputations to a point where they can progress further within the Church of Virus.
