[QUOTE="Plane Sailing, post: 2426477, member: 114"] My thoughts exactly. Although in the spirit of Sadriks original question, in my Eberron campaign I've done away with clerics, wizards and sorcerers, replacing them all with a single class called Scholar. Scholars have d6 for HD, learn prepare and cast spells as per wizards but their spell list is expanded to include all cleric spells too (if a spell is on both lists at different levels, pick the lowest). All other aspects are like wizards, but with no familiar. Druids still have their own spell list, with their own particular casting restrictions. Paladins and Rangers are using arcane magic but their spell list spells are all non-Somatic spells, thus they can be cast in armour with no problem. Some Scholars work for churches (and claim their power is from the divine), some Scholars work for dragonmarked houses or nobles or organisations or themselves. FWIW I basically stole the Scholar idea from Conan OGL by Mongoose. Works very nicely. As a further answer to your original question, alternative means of healing must be provided too - Eberron does that through house Jorasco, a dragonmarked house whose dragonmark provides healing spell-like abilities. And as an economic entity they see no problem in selling their healing services for hard cash. Cheers [/QUOTE]
