[QUOTE="R_J_K75, post: 8405022, member: 6921294"] So in your opinion if I play a cleric I'm required to heal a party member without fail or question? Hypothetically lets say I come up with a character concept for a cleric Im bringing into the party that doesnt use healing magic, I need to run this by the entire group in case they decide to veto the idea? Deciding not to memorize healing spells and thereby "withholding healing" is PVP? Remember there are deities that dont grant healing spells or would require that the cleric receive some form of payment for using their granted spells on someone who is not of the faith. How is a party cleric asking for some form of tithing (monetary or not) from their party members any different than the party having to pay a random church for healing magic? Lastly, a cleric has no control over what spells they get, just because they pray for a certain spell doesnt mean they are going to get that spell or any spell at all. They are merely a conduit of their god who could possibly see a clerics use of healing on the party without compensation as an affront. Thats why I dont play clerics as a never ending healing font thats turned on and off like a faucet. [/QUOTE]
