[QUOTE="irdeggman, post: 2116452, member: 16285"] Since Domain spells are "specifically" mentioned as not being substitutable then I see no reason why any non-cleric spell would be. That is, I agree with the 99 who say ony the cleric spells can be substituted. It is specifically talking about a class (cleric) and not a character - so a cleric can substittue any prepared spell (except domain spells). . . .Note that if itwas a wizard spell then it is not "a cleric". Different spell lists and all. Besides it makes more sense if it is striclty cleric spells and not any spell the character knows. Note the same thing works with druids and summon nature's ally spells. On pg 180 of the PHB it expounds on this and talks about the [I]divine energy[/I] of the spell being converted. Oops that eliminates all arcane spells since they have no divine energy - so it is not [I]any[/I] (non-domain) spell the cleric has prepared - there are already conditions. . . . From the SRD: Spontaneous Casting of Cure and Inflict Spells: A good cleric (or a cleric of a good deity) can spontaneously cast a cure spell in place of a prepared spell of the same level or higher, but not in place of a domain spell. An evil cleric (or a cleric of an evil deity) can spontaneously cast an inflict spell in place of a prepared spell (one that is not a domain spell) of the same level or higher. Each neutral cleric of a neutral deity either spontaneously casts cure spells like a good cleric or inflict spells like an evil one, depending on which option the player chooses when creating the character. The [b]divine energy[/b] of the spell that the cure or inflict spell substitutes for is converted into the cure or inflict spell as if that spell had been prepared all along [/QUOTE]
