[QUOTE="the Jester, post: 3337943, member: 1210"] Ahh, but I am neither afraid to pull spells from other books, nor afraid to create my own! :) Yeah, it's a ton of work, but I think I can come up with 20 (or even 50) different 9th-level spells. I guess one of the best things I can do to start the ol' ball rolling is to consider what domains I need to add. Like I posted earlier, I see a need for "descriptive" domains that specify [i]what type of priest[/i] a character is, as well as domains that lay out the god's portfolio. There should also be some that emphasize characteristics of the deity in question (and no, I don't use godless clerics). Very quickly, I can see the following 'domain types': -Descriptive of the priesthoold ("defender of the faith" domain) -Elemental (air, earth, fire, water) -Alignment (law, good, evil, chaos) -Portfolio (spring, farming, murder, etc) -Characteristic of deity (wisdom) Often a god's characteristics might be distinctly different from its portfolio- for instance, Pelor is the god of light, sun, strength and healing, but might have the Wisdom domain as he himself is quite wise (even though it isn't in his area of control).
