[QUOTE="Tales and Chronicles, post: 8232303, member: 6871653"] This. I wish D&D would differentiate clerics by the way they work to spread the faith of their chosen pantheon rather than by the domain of one of the gods. Some archetypes could be: Warpriest (heavy armored crusaders) Invoker (medium armor, call blight and curses and brand the infidel, as seen in 4e) Theurge (no armor, loremastery and rituals) Oracle (divination and social skills) Avenger (light armored, stealthy cleric, hunt enemy of the faith) Anathema (steals from the gods, the ur-priest of 3e) Then, you could change 1 domain (with the option to retrain it at level up). Those domain would give you 1 cantrip and the ability to add one spell of one type from any list if it fits a criteria. ex: Light Domain: gain the Light cantrip and when you prepare your spells, you can prepare 1 spell from any list if the spell deals radiant damage. Shadow domain: gain the Minor Illusion cantrip and when you prepare your spells, you can prepare 1 spell from any list if the spell is from the school of Illusion. [/QUOTE]
