We can start over, without any clerics or paladins.I'm OK with druids, because that's more nature magic than magic derived from the gods. I know that by default, paladins don't have to worship a deity in 5e, but they still have things like divine senses and divine smite and such that I would prefer isn't in the game. Someone could still play a holy warrior, they just wouldn't have any divine powers to back up that claim. It would be more a roleplaying thing (eg. they could belong to an organization akin to the Knights Templar or whatever).I just feel like a) it would be unfair to force two of my players to make new PCs when no one else has to and b) it would be too jarring to make such sudden changes in an on-going campaign. I would be much more comfortable just starting over. I'm just not sure how my players would feel about that. One of them has said he's pretty flexible and doesn't mind. Still waiting to see what the others say. [MENTION=6788732]cbwjm[/MENTION]: The patron is actually a silver dragon posing as a half-elven innkeeper in a frontier town. The PCs also don't yet know she's a silver dragon, although some of my players suspect she might be. She has no obvious political connections. In fact, there aren't really any politics of any kind in the area we've set up. It's in the middle of a wilderness area that's not part of any kingdom or barony or anything. The town is governed by a mayor but that's as high as it goes. So the best I could do with this particular patron is have her tell them that they've done a great job making this area safe and now it's time for them to go out into the wider world.But, this point is somewhat moot if I decide to start over.</blockquote>
