Anybody tired of god-o-centric d&d worlds. I got the idea for this from another post.
Does every fantasy world have to be run by dieties? Can they just be made up entities that people worship? Then a fighter or wizard could be a high priest etc.
Arguably, the cleric is the only class that you have to have in a group. How do you remove the cleric from the game and still make the game play viable?
The biggest problem is healing and more appropriately: free easily accessed healing.
Possabilities:
Make domains a feat for arcane casters?
Make healing spells arcane spells?
Change the healing rules around? (every hour you heal your con score, wp/vp system etc.)
Make effective healing potions super cheap? (like alchemist's fire or less)
Make a healing feat chain that adds to the heal skill?
Can't think of anymore. Any ideas welcome.
Remember this is fantasy lets keep real world opinions out of the discussion.
