[QUOTE="frankthedm, post: 3141822, member: 1164"] [I][B]Divine Focus (DF)[/B] A divine focus component is an item of spiritual significance. The divine focus for a cleric or a paladin is a [U]holy symbol appropriate to the character’s faith[/U]. [B] Holy Symbol, Silver or Wooden[/B] A holy symbol focuses positive energy. A cleric or paladin uses it as the focus for his spells and as a tool for turning undead. [U]Each religion has its own holy symbol. [/U] [I]Unholy Symbols[/I] An unholy symbol is like a holy symbol except that it focuses negative energy and is used by evil clerics (or by neutral clerics who want to cast evil spells or command undead). [/I] You sound SOL unless the Devourer likes holly and mistletoe, but Eberron tends to be more lenient on such matters. I could see trickster type deity give [I]a wink and a nod[/I] to a double sided holy symbol. One side, Its holy symbol, the other side a parody of a rival faith's holy symbol, only detectable with a DC 15 search check [know; religion giving synergy bonus to this check]. [I]"Odd, you did not think a sun god would have vampire fangs..."[/I] [/QUOTE]
