Hi, I have a Divine Magician character concept in the works. The Divine Magician is in the Complete Mage and basically lets a cleric give up one domain and in return, on every level when he would have had access to a new level of spells, he instead selects one necromancy, abjuration, or divination spell from the wizard list and adds it to his own spell list. That spell is cast as if it was divine.
I wanted the character to be a member of a secret cult of Odilammara is near suitable as a deity of revelry, music, tricks, wine, and song. But that does not cover all of this cleric's interests & compulsions.
For this character Odilammara also represents the outstanding features of mystery religions, such as those practiced at Eleusis: ecstasy, personal delivery from the daily world through physical or spiritual intoxication, and initiation into secret rites.
This is the most suitable patron for this cleric investigator. His patron fits his obssessive & moody pleasure seeking Sherlock Holmesian opium smoking Sam Spade attitude persona.
Also, do we have to stay exactly to the domains listed for each deity if we have to chose one from the Player's HB? If so, I was wondering if it would be ok to use deity from Deities & Demigods. I would like to use Dionysis or Balder.
