[QUOTE="Set, post: 4950443, member: 41584"] Looks good to me. Some of of the domains that have a less sexy 1st level power (as this one does, IMO) also come with some other freebie, like an extra class skill or something, so you might want to consider that. Over on the Paizo forums, there's a thread with some other conversions (mostly from Eberron). [URL="http://paizo.com/paizo/messageboards/paizoPublishing/pathfinder/pathfinderRPG/communityContent/conversions/scalykindAndVoidDomainsForPFRPG"]paizo.com - Paizo / Messageboards / Paizo Publishing / Pathfinder® / Pathfinder RPG / Community Content / Conversions / Scalykind and Void Domains for PFRPG[/URL] Here's the one that's from the Forgotten Realms (not coincidentally, one of my favorite 3.5 Domains, since the idea of a serpent priest with rebuked vipers, constrictors, crocodiles, monitor lizards and / or dinosaurs in tow is just hot). [B]Scalykind Domain[/B] [B]Dieties:[/B] Dahak, Ydersius [B]Granted Powers:[/B] You are granted dominion over serpentine creatures, and can call upon reptilian powers of scale and venom. [I]Serpentstrike[/I] (Su): As an attack action, you can cause a single creature to suffer the effects of a snake's bite with a melee touch attack. A translucent serpent of greenish-gold force automatically bites any target you hit with this touch attack, inflicting 1d4 P damage + poison ([I]save[/I] Fort DC 10 + 1/2 cleric level; [I]frequency[/I] 1/round for 6 rounds; [I]effect[/I] 1d2 Con; [I]cure[/I] 1 save). You can use this ability a number of times per day equal to 3 + your Wisdom modifier [I]Master of Scale[/I] (Su): At 6th level, any [I]summon monster[/I] or [I]summon nature’s ally[/I] spell can be cast to summon dinosaurs, fish, frogs, reptilian animals or snakes as if a spell of the next higher level. A [I]summon monster III[/I] could therefore summon 1 celestial or fiendish deinonychus, giant frog or pteranadon, or 1d3 celestial or fiendish constrictors, crocodiles, electric eels, giant lizards or sharks, or 1d4+1 celestial or fiendish octopus, while a [I]summon nature’s ally V[/I] could summon 1 elasmosaurus, giant octopus, stegosaurus or triceratops, 1d3 ankylosaurus or giant moray eel, or 1d4+1 deinonychus, giant frogs or pteranodon. [B]Domain Spells[/B]: 1st – [I]magic fang[/I], 2nd – [I]barkskin[/I] (presenting a scaly appearance), 3rd – [I]greater magic fang[/I], 4th – [I]poison[/I], 5th – [I]animal growth[/I]*, 6th – [I]form of the dragon I[/I], 7th – [I]creeping doom[/I] (composed of tiny snakes), 8th – [I]form of the dragon III[/I], 9th – [I]shapechange[/I] * Affects ophidian or reptilian creatures only. [NOTE: I would add this Domain to the list of options that a Druid can learn via Natural Bond, hence the mention of how it would interact with [I]summon nature's ally[/I].] FR Domains that would be most portable to Golarion would be Fate (Pharasma), Illusion (Sivanah), Mentalism (Irori?), Metal (Gorum or Torag), Ocean (Gozreh), Retribution (Calistria), Spell (Nethys), Suffering (Zon-Kuthon), Trade (Abadar), Tyranny (Asmodeus) and Undeath (Urgathoa). I've also got a fondness for Spiders and Renewal, but I'd have to open a book to come up with a suitable diety for those ones, and I'm feeling lazy. :) [/QUOTE]
