[QUOTE="Voadam, post: 330867, member: 2209"] Andrew, To answer your question about domains to give God and Satan I would be sure to give God at least Good, Law, and Animal (he gives Adam dominion over all animals in genesis). Look at domains for the powers God gives not just what he represents or his aspects. Good domain can make blessed weapons etc. Satan, I would give at least Trickery, Chaos and Evil. If you give domains based on ultimate power (as you stated), then God has more than Satan. I would suggest having clerics powers be based off of philosophy/church tradition rather than direct deity grant, it just seems more fun and can provide more options.
