Friars
San Diego's old squad
Friars are members of certain Roman Catholic religious orders—Franciscans, Dominicans, Carmelites, and Augustinians being the major ones.
Unlike monks, who live in enclosed monasteries, friars move among the people, preaching and doing charitable work.
The word shares roots with fraternity, reflecting their life as brothers in a religious community.
Friar Tuck is the jovial cleric of Robin Hood legend.
