[QUOTE="RandyH, post: 6789713, member: 6800241"] [B]Domain Imitation [/B](general) Select a domain that you do not already have. You gain the domain power from that domain. [B]Prerequisite[/B] Knowledge (religion) 8 ranks, UMD 8 ranks, any non-lawful alignment, must have had training with or studied a divine caster that possesses the domain for no less than 48 hours, and must have remained within 100 feet from the caster the entire time. The caster does not need to know that you are studying him/her. [B]Benefit[/B] You gain the domain power associated with the domain. You do not however gain any domain spells that the domain would normally grant. [B]Special[/B] You may take this feat more than once. Each time, you must select a different domain. Thoughts on if I should lengthen the study time or not? Any concerns or thoughts? I made the requirements more difficult to get than Arcane Disciple (even though this just grants you the power and not the actual domain) since I imagine that a UMD user would need to put in some effort to manipulate the divine power surrounding (or being sent to, or however divine casters keep their divine powers/gifts) the caster so that some of it permanently becomes part of him. I imagine that most deities would not look too highly of non-disciples usurping some of the powers that are not meant for them, therefore I think it would be a bit of a chaotic at, ergo the alignment restriction of non-lawful...just seems to slightly go against the natural order a bit. For the same reason, I think that most (but not all) clerics, druids, disciples, etc would not directly train someone from outside their order how to do this, making it that much more difficult. There's a possibility of a Feat using this as a requirement that grants you the actual domain as well...Maybe something like you need to train with or study them for an entire month, and then you gain the spells as Spell like abilities once/day...barring that there would have to be HD limits, probably following to when clerics gain a new spell level increase.
