No, MD, you can't use devine wands, just as Arcanra can't use arcane. You could always multiclass as a cleric.... As for prestige classes, I'll be trying to advance the level of the campaign quickly, so prestige classes are a go, any options from the DMG are automatically ok with me, and feel free to run any other classes by me.

The party sets out into the Anauroch, a rather hastily scratched map your only guide. The party continues on along the trade routes, and the first day, you camp out in the open desert. All but Sul'Dan are sufficiently freaked out by the completely alien enviroment yu now find yourselves in. The second day, by about noon, smoke begins to rise on the horizon in the general direction of where you are heading. At 6 o'clock, when you arrive at the oasis that your map was leading you too, you find the native city in ruins. Several grotesquely bloated purpleish body lay sprawled on the ground. Your journey seems to be ended for now because the guides you were relying upon seem to have all died. Luckily, there is a clear trail where something large traveled to the west. Unluckily, the trail is quite large, perhaps 10 feet wide.
