[QUOTE="Kahuna Burger, post: 1573196, member: 8439"] I would perfer this greatly to the current method - simply put, I as a DM should not be trying to keep track of whether the ability has actually been used up or not over the course of a "day" (which in pbp could a week or longer). The old way also gives it too much power over other abilities with uses per day which almost always fall with the caveat "if you try to use it, you used it up whether it was even capable of doing any good or not." For other issues; Again with the allignment thing. As I understand it, clerics must be within one step of their diety's allignment. This limits a chaotic evil god to followers of C/E, C/N and N/E allignments. I believe (but could easily be wrong on this point) that the allignment of clerics line is meant for further restrictions of allignments, not opening them up. Now, since a cleric can only choose true nuetral if that is his god's allignment, making this god N/E would restrict allignments effectivly to all evil. Generally speaking if he is deeply chaotic as part of his makeup, he shouldn't have lawful clerics, though lawful worshippers are another issue. The choice of a net as favored weapon is interesting, but since the war domain isn't available, will most of his clerics be able to use one (even if multiclassed)? Seems kinda mean, esp since IIRC there is a cleric spell which summons an empowered form of your dieties favored weapon.... Also, isn't a net a little... er... nice? Sure an intelligent dancing one is creepy, but for the vengeful bastard on the street, he's using the only non violent weapon in the SRD. :confused: If you want to be exotic, I'd go with a scourge/cat'o'nine tails. Can still name it spider but it goes really well with the 'punishing your enemies' theme... or a whip daggar named snake. I'll wait on a final version of the doom domain before voting, but those are my initial thoughts. Kahuna Burger [/QUOTE]
