[QUOTE="Oofta, post: 6861803, member: 6801845"] So ... in other words ... no you can't show me in the books where clerics are considered evangelists for their god. As far as wisdom being a primary stat, as the PHB states "The power of your spells comes from your devotion to your deity". Not in your ability to proselytize nor the force of your personality. Part of being a cleric is being a conduit of another power, which seems at odds with having a strong personality. A cleric is a meek (in the biblical sense, not necessarily in the modern sense) vessel who gives himself over to a greater purpose. Kind of seems like a strong charisma/personality might even be a detriment to the character. A warlock on the other hand is driven by their own sense of self and are "driven by an insatiable need for knowledge and power". So basically they're a master negotiator who has made a deal with the devil (or some other otherworldly power). [/QUOTE]
