While there is some amount of overlap, the death domain focuses on the creation of undead servants, the underworld domains is much subtler in its approach, bringing the sickness, disgust, and plagues that haunt the underworld out of netherworld and into the mortal realm.Deities of the underworld are not universally evil. According to Greek myth, Hades performs many fewer immortal acts than his more esteemed brothers, Zeus and Poseidon. Perhaps the underworld god in your campaign is similar. Instead of a vile Lifetaker bent on the destruction of all life, she is instead  a dark, gloomy sentinel that guards veil between the underworld and the mortal world from vengeful, undead spirits.Underworld Domain SpellsCleric Level    Spells1st - Hex, ray of sickness3rd - Invisibility, ray of enfeeblement5th - Bestow curse, spirit guardians7th - Blight, phantasmal killer9th - Contagion, insect plagueBonus CantripAt 1st level, you learn the chill touch cantrip if you don’t know it already.
