Cleric

Description: Clerics act as intermediaries between the earthly and the divine (or infernal) worlds. A good cleric helps those in need, while an evil cleric seeks to spread his patron's vision of evil across the world. All clerics can heal wounds and bring people back from the brink of death, and powerful clerics can even raise the dead. Likewise, all clerics have authority over undead creatures, and they can turn away or even destroy these creatures. Clerics are trained in the use of simple weapons, and can use all forms of armor and shields without penalty, since armor does not interfere with the casting of divine spells. In addition to his normal complement of spells, every cleric chooses to focus on two of his deity's domains. These domains grant the cleric special powers, and give him access to spells that he might otherwise never learn.

Prestige Class Tips

Notes

  • Animal Domain's summon spell modification applies to summon spells cast by multiclassed cleric's other casting class. (e.g. wizard 10/cleric 1 Summon Creature I spell cast from wizard spellbook summons a boar).
  • Healing Domain's Empower Healing ability also empowers healing potions and items that cast the affected spells.
  • Clerics with the healing domain will notice that empowered versions of the cure spells will not be twice empowered.
  • Outsiders have been improved. They get turn resistance equal to their spell resistance rating (only clerics of the Good or Evil domains may turn them without the new Planar Turning feat). If you have the Planar Turning feat, they are weakened and only have 1/2 their spell resistance as turn resistance.
