Round 8: Tossup 1

Myroblytes are a class of these figures that exude a namesake odor or oil from their incorruptible bodies. (15[1])Nameless companions accompany some of these figures, such as Perpetua and Felicity. Burying a specific one of these figures to sell a house is a controversial method of invoking these figures’ (15[1])intercession. (15[1])These figures are chronicled (15[1])in (15[1])(*) hagiographies. (10[1])The (10[1])Dicastery for the Causes of these figures, which formerly employed a Devil’s advocate, assesses three degrees of miracles and determines these figures’ feast (10[1])days. (10[1])Nations, activities, or families are represented (10[1])by “patron” (10[1])versions of, (10[1])for 10 points, (10[2])what Christian figures who have been canonized? ■END■ (10[2])
