[QUOTE="Seeten, post: 2218289, member: 27186"] KM's ideas are clearly not the D&D RAW. It isnt the great wheel as I recall it, anyway, and Deities fighting it out on the PM plane is certainly abnormal. From what I have read so far, I will make this statement. If it were my world, I'd have the paladins as an order dedicated to the dragons working to save the world. Whether it was the Draconic divinity that empowered them, a Divine being that was unique to the Dragons, or an individual Dragon King, powerful enough to grant smites and 4th level spells, thats where *I* would take it. Maybe another for the Faerie Queen. Maybe the Dragon King and Faerie Queen are pooling resources. Whatever the case, that would be where. Where dealing with the good clerics, if you were a cleric of Thom the Righteous, and Thom sent a Deva to help save you and your world, its your duty to assist not hinder, the deva, or be smote yourself. That is clear. Clerics will be in trouble in this world, unless they, like Paladins, are devoted to ideals and/or Dragon/Fey essences/deities/PM Plane/etc. How about a Force/Spirit/Titan/etc called Gaea, who grants spells to clerics and powers to Paladins, in defense of herself(living embodiment of the world, similar to the Earth Day conception of Gaea)? Any of those things would work, and would fit into this new cosmology, imo. I dont think taking a unique and flavorful setting, and lighting it afire via the RAW is fair, when much of the RAW can be used to add to the flavor, and really, only minor things change. FR isnt RAW, Eberron isnt RAW, so that being the case, why should KM's be. Eberron does drastic changes to alignment, KM's is much less dramatic. [/QUOTE]
