My Very Own House Own House Rules: Classes

Pretty much what it says on the tin. My own changes to the core classes, with a couple rules needing to be added for the Bard, Druid & possibly the Paladin. Comment, critique etc.

[sblock=MVOHR: PHB Classes]Cleric
HIT DICE
The cleric’s hit die has been changed to a d6.

DOMAINS
Several of the granted powers have altered. Unless otherwise stated, the bonuses replace the previous powers.

Animals
Granted Powers: Add Knowledge (Nature) and Ride as cleric class skills. Speak with Animals as a spell like ability 1/day per 4 HD.

TURN ATTEMPTS
All of a cleric’s turn attempts for the day are pooled. e.g. A water cleric does not treat it’s number of turn attempts for fire creatures separate from turn attempts for undead – he has turn uses per day to use between the two as he see fit.

Makes stoneskin cheap.

I like the Sorcerer changes seeing as how I've never had my players worry about material components unless its an identify spell.

As for the Wizard changes, I dont' like it, but thats just me. I like the idea that Wizards are more perceptive when it comes to magic than Sorcerers, who tend to be more wild and dont' know why they just do. But thats me.
