[QUOTE="Voadam, post: 1785636, member: 2209"] In my world the gods don't actually provide or control divine magic, clerics just think they do and many churches reinforce this viewpoint. Every cleric is therefore actually a godless cleric. But I haven't told the PCs, it is a metaphysical aspect of the world that could be discovered, but has not come up significantly and is not starting PC knowledge. The fact that there are multiple overlapping and conflicting pantheons might be a clue, as could the different cosmology legends even among the party's different religious PCs (a druid, a cleric of the dwarven pantheon, and a human paladin of the "old gods"). Despite this churches are significant forces in the world, the campaign is set in a theocratic empire, there are pantheon machinations going on in the uberplot, and church factions are players in most of the main action going on at the PC interaction level.
