It has crunch, it has fluff, it has all the right stuff! <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" />In Planescape, since all (or most) of the Powers live in the Outer Plances, they are aware of each other's existence. They have formed a sort of truce, so all clerics receive their spells in the Prime Material Plane, no matter if it's the Prime they're from (it is assumed that the local god with the same portfolio will forward your spells to you, and expects your god to do the same for his followers).Things get tricky on the Planes. For each Plane you're removed from your god's home Plane, your effective caster level is dimished by one. So if you worship Zeus (who hangs his toga in Olympus) and you happen to be adventuring in the Abyss, you have to go through Pandemonium, Limbo and Ysgard to get to Olympus. That puts you at -4 caster level.But there's a loophole! If you worship a pantheon (say, the Olympians) you can use any plane that houses a deity from that Pantheon as the home plane. Our olympian priest in the Abyss would then be just at -2 caster level, since Hades skulks about the Gray Waste (going through Carceri/Tarterus to get there).</blockquote>
