I need ideas for a Green Ronin style Holy Warrior

[Volaran]

Hi all,

Recently I was asked to design for my DM a Green Ronin style Holy Warrior for a god of time. Changing the Holy Warrior over to 3.5 is fairly easy task, as I can extrapolate from the Book of Fiends' Unholy Warrior.

My problem comes when choosing domain powers. There is no Time domain, and I'd like to design one. I have a few vague ideas, but consulting the oracle that is EN World is never a bad idea.

This particular Holy Warrior, tentatively titled the Epoch, is used as an instrument of the time god for correcting and preventing damage to the time stream. In addition, they are charged with destroying aberrations, which in my Dm's campaign world come from a domain outside regular time.

My thoughts thus far, and I'm not sure what might be viable, are as follows:

- An agelessness power, similar to that of the druid's
- Spells that effect time, like Haste, Time Stop, ect being difficult to cast within a certain range of the Epoch, possibly certain divinations as well "piercing time and space", and all that.
- Perhaps allowing them to turn, but not destroy, aberrations instead of undead
- Ideas for time/space spell-like abilities for the "Gift of God" powers...maybe Blink, followed by Haste

In any case, I need to organize these ideas into the three tiered domain powers of a potential Holy Warrior Time domain. Any thoughts?

FR has a Time domain which is as follows:

Granted Power: You gain Improved Initiative as a bonus feat.
Spells:
1: true strike
2: gentle repose
3: haste
4: freedom of movement
5: permanency
6: contingency
7: moment of presience
8: foresight
9: time stop

I really like this domain. It's one of the view that I haven't altered the spell list IMC.

I'm not so sure how to translate this into a holy warrior's gifts but, hopefully, the domain itself will give you some ideas.

Excellent. That seems like a good place to start.

THank you kindly!

I suggest to go there: Netbook of Time, and download the netbook of time, which is free, well made, and deals about chronomancy, gods of times, and time domains, even if all of this is an amateur supplement.

You're most welcome. I hope you post your results as I would be interested in seeing them.
