[QUOTE="HarryFlashman, post: 1350463, member: 16377"] In other news i would like to make the Order of Simon into a sort of core class that is wholly unavailable to PCs. Why you ask? Well in my Campaign world, which is Low magic (I have yet to figure out how to incorporate Clerics, but I do know that I want nothing to do with Sorcerors or Wizards) the Order of Simon priesthood is able to cast spells that is beyondhte collectie knowledge of bards or standard Clerics. To this end i have thought of some ideas but nothing has yet passed muster. 1) Allow those of the Order to cast as Normal PHB Clerics. 2) Treat the Order as an easy-to-attain Prestige class. There were some particular PrCs that interst me inteh Druid/Ranger splatbook, but as I do not own it I forget the power or even the name of the PrC. 3) ? have any Ideas? Currently for my low-magic Clerics I am interested in toying with the spell's available. To this end I am allowing the same rate of spell memorization rules and the Spontaneous casting rules but limit the priests to 2 Domains at first level. By this I mean that they can cast spells only from those two domains. Every 3 levels afterwards ( 4th, 8th) they gain another Domain and the Granted power along with it. To balance out the class a bit I will be adding new skills ( those of the Aristocrat NPC class) and a new feat every 3 levels. No doubt there will be other campaign specific benefits of the Priesthood ( elite status, money, above the law etc) that vary by city and priesthood. [/QUOTE]
