[QUOTE="Helldritch, post: 8433359, member: 6855114"] You almost got it. Why do it for all the gods? They did it for "most setting". They even gave examples. And I don't care one Iota about expansion books. Not every one have them. If a DM over ride the game. That is his prerogative. The player has no control over this. What the player has control is what domain he wants to play. And among the gods that allow that domain, the player picks one. One thing is for sure. Many people confuse me with George Lucas. Fine by me. But even if we look alike, I do not have the interest as he does and guess what? I do not have his bank account. If I follow your logic, I should have the same bank account, we have similar faces... Come on man, look alike and similar is not the same. Versimilitude? Credibility? Continuity? Some gods have one domain, others have two and some have three. Maybe the power level has something to do with it... One thing is for sure, in the PHB, the maximum is three (with only two gods having three), and two domain gods are generaly reserved for powerful gods with many interest. Most have only one. This is a reason why I usually insist to keep to the core books. Splat books are notorious to create inconsistencies and to confuse things a lot. [/QUOTE]
