Didn't know there was a real difference. I'll be ninja-like from now on if it is causing annoying problems. The pictures are from he-man.org as fan creations from the defunct 2002 MotU cartoon. I was a big fan of the original when I was a kid, and I like alot of their creations.

Ok, the start of mine
Cathedral:
Aka: The Holy Priests, Elraths Healing Hand .
Associated Colours: White and Silver.
Worship: Elrath, the Dragon of Light.
Core Philosophy : “Any wound can be healed, any corruption can be cleansed.”
Key Symbols : The Hand of Light.
In each and every faction, it exists individuals that, at best, can be called fanatical. As some men and elves that worshiped Elrath became more and more obsessed in their god, they, to some extent, parted from his ways. At first glance the Cathedral may look like the look like the normal human society, however the leaders of the Cathedral despise any sort of corruption, therefore normal cities of the Cathedral is often much more healthy, with less beggars and no filth what so ever on the streets. The troops of the Cathedral is extremely fanatical and will do anything to clear themselves from any kind of dark influence. And their strongest leaders bear the highest sign of their god and support their troops with powerful spells and show them to battle with the leadership of the god.
The Society:
The Cathedrals society is rather simple, the priests control all high positions in all cities and armies, all the other work is evenly divided among all other that live in the cities. One large difference in the cities of the Cathedral is that when every human settlement normally have a few or more unlucky souls that litter the streets and got nothing else than beg for money or scraps of food from passing men, however in the Cathedral that problem have easily solved by taking all those people and put them to work in tidying and cleaning the city. Some of these beggars have showed talent in both the martial and spiritual art and have been taken as test-apprentices, these are giving the same treatment as all the other would-be priests.
Pure Creatures: All units from the Cathedral got the “Pure” ability, all those are immune to mind control and benefit from the “Purging” skill.
Hero: Preacher
Racial Skill: Purging
Primary Skills: Defense:50% Knowledge:30% Spellpower:10% Attack:10%
Spell Schools: Light, Summoning
Note that all Preachers got “Shatter Dark” instead of “Dark Magic”
Basic Purging: All “Pure” units gains 15% resistance versus Dark Magic, also at the start of each “Pure” unit there is a 25% chance that “Cleansing” is cast at the unit with no mastery.
Advanced Purging: All “Pure” units gains 30% resistance versus Dark Magic, also at the start of each “Pure” unit there is a 40% chance that “Cleansing” is cast at the unit with Basic mastery.
Expert Purging: All “Pure” units gains 50% resistance versus Dark Magic, also at the start of each “Pure” unit there is a 60% chance that “Cleansing” is cast at the unit with Advanced mastery.
Ultimate Purging: All “Pure” units gains 70% resistance versus Dark Magic, also at the start of each “Pure” unit there is a 80% chance that “Cleansing” is cast at the unit with Expert mastery.
Lineup:
Tier1:
Apprentice – Prodigy/Fanatic
Apprentice:
Apprentices are young mens which greatest dream is to become a priest of Elrath, they enter the battlefield just guarded by a robe and armed with a simple knife, they trust in their god to protect them from any harm. During each turn they heal their wounds and become fit to battle once again.
Abilities: Pure, Self Heal(During the start of the stacks turn the top unit is healed to full health (aka H3s regeneration.))
Attack: 2
Defense: 2
Damage: 2-2
Initiative 9
Speed 4
Health 6
Growth 14
Tactics: The self heal ability isn't the best but can still conserve some numbers, their stats is also rather high and got a decent growth, a slightly above average unit.
Prodigy:
Prodigies are Apprentices whose skill in healing is unmatched, they can completely heal a friendly units health to full health aswell as purging it from any affliction, one step more and these men would become would become worthy priests however for now they must fight the hordes of enemies waiting for them.
Abilities: Pure, Self Heal, Lay Hands
Attack: 2
Defense: 4
Damage: 2-2
Initiative 10
Speed 5
Health 9
Growth 14
Tactics: The offensive stats of the Prodigy haven't been upgraded however a minor increase in speed and initiative is always welcome however the greatest news is a large increase in defence and a whopping 50%(!!) increase in hitpoints make the Prodigy a great defensive unit, thus Self Heal is more useful and Lay Hands can be put to great use.
Fanatic:
Fanatics believe in Elrath, it's that simple, they no longer want to become priests, they believe that they can serve Elrath as well now. They have taken the responsibility to make way to the troops of the Cathedral and will fight with questionable ferocity for a holy man. They nolonger care for their own wounds but as the battle progress enemies often look with wonder as the Fanatics seem to grow stronger each turn.
Abilities: Pure, God-Blessed(During the start of the stacks turn a random level 1-3 Light Magic is cast at the stack at no mastery and with a spellpower of 8, note that some spells may not be cast under certain conditions, like deflect missile vs. neutral walkers.)
Attack: 3
Defense: 2
Damage: 2-3
Initiative 11
Speed 6
Health 6
Growth 14
Tactics: A increase in all the offensive stats is well needed making the Fanatics to inflict high amount of damage, also the God-Blessed ability greatly increases the stacks strength. However they lack greatly from any find of defense, hope that endurance is cast.

Haha, you failed to use it again.
So, were the monsters "Pit Lord, Griffin, Nomad, Poltergeist, Basilisk, Hydra, and a Hero*"? or did Daystar change any of them?
I think I`m in with this one as well, but not sure yet.
