Cleric

Class Traits

Class Skills: Arcana (Int), Diplomacy (Cha), Heal (Wis), History (Int), Insight (Wis), Religion (Int)

Clerics are battle leaders who are invested with divine power. They blast foes with magical prayers, bolster and heal companions, and lead the way to victory with a mace in one hand and a holy symbol in the other. Clerics run the gamut from humble servants of the common folk to ruthless enforcers of evil gods.

As a cleric, the deity (or deities) you choose to revere goes a long way toward defining you, or at least how other people in the world see you. You could be a platinum-garbed envoy of Bahamut seeking justice throughout the land, a shadowy follower of Sehanine with a roguish streak, a burly disciple of Kord who believes the virtue of strength is sufficient for all challenges, or a dwarf cleric of Moradin bringing honor to the denizens of your mountain home.

Will you protect what is sacred to your god, quest for legendary holy artifacts, pursue a life of evangelical adventuring, or attempt all these deeds and more?

“The powers of darkness do not deter me, foul demon! Pelor my shield and strength!”

WIELDING POWER sanctioned by the gods, you are the center of your adventuring party. You guard your comrades and heal them when they are hurt, and you direct the course of the battle by weakening chosen enemies.

Some clerics prefer to deal with foes directly, wading into hand-to-hand combat or scouring enemies with radiant blasts and pillars of flame. Others follow the path of the shielding cleric (a build introduced in this chapter) to defeat opponents by supporting stouthearted companions. In this role, you do not fear battle, but you understand that your divine power does the most good by blunting the attacks of your enemies and bolstering the efforts of your allies. Through your prayers, you share your own unshakable confidence and determination with your companions, heartening them for the challenges ahead.

Whether you’re a skull-thumping battler, a devoted protector, or a charismatic source of inspiration, this chapter offers numerous ways to lead your comrades in your deity’s cause.

Creating a Cleric

The cleric has three basic builds to start: the battle cleric, the devoted cleric, and the shielding cleric. Clerics rely on Strength for their melee attacks and Wisdom for their healing and non-melee prayers. Charisma also aids their abilities.

Battle Cleric

If you choose to concentrate on melee, you find a good assortment of strikes to your liking. To achieve this build, make Strength your primary score. Make Wisdom your secondary score and assign Charisma as your tertiary score. Make sure to concentrate on powers that work with melee attacks, since these play to your key ability scores.

• Suggested Feat: Weapon Focus (Human feat: Action Surge)

• Suggested Skills: Diplomacy, Heal, Insight, Religion

• Suggested At-Will Powers: righteous brand, priest’s shield

• Suggested Encounter Power: wrathful thunder

• Suggested Daily Power: avenging flame

Devoted Cleric

With this build, you choose to stand back and concentrate your abilities on keeping your fellow adventurers healthy and optimized. To this end, choose powers that grant bonuses and healing, such as divine glow and beacon of hope. Assign your highest ability score to Wisdom, with Charisma secondary and Strength tertiary. Make sure to concentrate on powers that use Wisdom for attacks, since this is your highest ability score.

• Suggested Feat: Channel Divinity feat associated with your deity (Human feat: Human Perseverance)

• Suggested Skills: Arcana, Heal, History, Religion

• Suggested At-Will Powers: lance of faith, sacred flame

• Suggested Encounter Power: divine glow

• Suggested Daily Power: beacon of hope

Shielding Cleric

As a shielding cleric, you believe that your place is not to take the fight to the enemy directly, but to bolster allies with your presence. Your prayers lend additional resources to your friends and create opportunities for them to defeat their foes. Yours is a life of leadership through self-sacrifice, ongoing support, and inspiration. You do not seek personal glory, and you take comfort in knowing that your allies couldn’t have succeeded without you.

Wisdom is your most important ability, since the prayers that support your tactics rely on it. Charisma is a vital secondary ability, making many of your prayers more effective. A good Strength is important if you intend to take melee powers. You should select powers that emphasize your role as healer and facilitator.

Cleric Class Features

Clerics are capable combatants who wield simple weapons in battle—maces and similar weapons have long been symbols of divine authority. In addition, all clerics have the class features described below.

Channel Divinity

Once per encounter you can invoke divine power, filling yourself with the might of your patron deity. With the divine might you invoke you can wield special powers, such as turn undead and divine fortune. Some clerics learn other uses for this feature; for instance, the divinity feats grant characters with access to the Channel Divinity class feature the ability to use additional special powers.

Regardless of how many different uses for Channel Divinity you know, you can use only one such ability per encounter. The special ability or power you invoke works just like your other powers.

When you make your cleric, you can select the Channel Divinity power healer’s mercy in place of turn undead.

Healer’s Lore

Your study of healing allows you to make the most of your healing prayers. When you grant healing with one of your cleric powers that has the healing keyword, add your Wisdom modifier to the hit points the recipient regains.

Healing Word

Using the healing word power, clerics can grant their comrades additional resilience with nothing more than a short prayer.

Ritual Casting

You gain the Ritual Caster feat as a bonus feat, allowing you to use magical rituals. You possess a ritual book, and it contains two 1st-level rituals of your choice that you have mastered.

Clerics and Deities

All clerics choose a specific faith to which they devote themselves. Usually this faith is the worship of a specific patron deity—for example, Moradin, Pelor, or Erathis. Sometimes clerics are devoted to churches that venerate groups of deities or even philosophies.

As a cleric, your deity does not directly grant you powers. Instead, your ordination or investiture as a cleric grants you the ability to wield divine powers. Clerics are usually formally ordained by existing clerics who perform a special ritual to do so, but on rare occasions a deity moves to directly ordain a worthy worshiper without any sort of priestly hierarchy involved. What you do with your powers once you are ordained is up to you, although if you flagrantly and openly defy your deity’s tenets, you quickly earn the enmity of the faithful.

Cleric Overview

You must choose a deity compatible with your alignment: Good clerics serve good deities, lawful good clerics serve lawful good deities, and so on. If a deity is unaligned, your alignment doesn’t matter, so a deity such as Melora has good, lawful good, evil, chaotic evil, and unaligned clerics in her service. Similarly, if you’re unaligned, you can serve any god. For example, Pelor is served by both good clerics and unaligned clerics, but never by evil, chaotic evil, or lawful good clerics.

For most games, you should choose a good, lawful good, or unaligned deity for your cleric. Ask your Dungeon Master before you select an evil or chaotic evil deity.

Dead Gods

Gods cannot die of old age or mortal ailments and infirmities, but they can still be slain. Few beings have the power to kill a god: primordials, rival gods, and great entities of the Far Realm, several demon lords or archdevils working in concert—and sometimes a group of the mightiest mortals. Gods also have been known to simply fade away, forgotten by the mortal world. They slip into ever deeper slumber and linger dreaming through the ages, until finally they dream of nothing at all and cease to be.

Some of the dead gods known to have once existed include the following.

Amoth: Many centuries ago, Amoth was a god of justice and mercy who ruled over the astral dominion of Kalandurren. The demon lords Orcus, Demogorgon, and Rimmon conspired against him and launched an overwhelming attack against Kalandurren. Although Amoth destroyed Rimmon and nearly slew Demogorgon as well, Orcus struck him down, and the demons overthrew his realm. Kalandurren is now a ruined dominion, abandoned by all but a few demons who still prowl its shattered castles and gray hills.

He Who Was: Once among the mightiest of the gods, the lord of the great dominion Baathion presided over kingship, wisdom, and the sky. The archangel Asmodeus rebelled against him, and with the Ruby Rod struck down his lord. The dying god pronounced a curse against Asmodeus and his followers, transforming the idyllic realm of Baathion into Baator, a cruel prison of black rock and unending fire. Asmodeus has worked for ages to erase the knowledge of his defeated master’s name, so only a handful of mortal scholars still know it; most refer to this being as He Who Was. It is whispered that Asmodeus dispatches powerful devils to slay any mortal who speaks the forbidden name, and that he fears the name to this day.

Io: The creator of dragons, Io was beset by mighty primordials and destroyed in the War of Creation. From his shattered body two new gods sprang—Bahamut, the Platinum Dragon, and Tiamat, the Queen of Evil Dragons. Some stories say that the god was betrayed to the primordials by Zehir, who envied Io his mighty children.

Khala: The original god of winter was a cruel, malicious being who schemed against the other gods and sought to extend her grip over all the mortal world. Her glaciers and blizzards threatened to destroy the fragile races of mortals as her son Kord ran wild, bringing storms and calamity to all. Khala and her allies—Gruumsh, Tiamat, Zehir, and several powerful primordials—grew strong enough to assault the dominions of the gods who stood against her. But Kord came to regret the harm he had done and turned against Khala. Pelor and the assembled gods who stood with him destroyed Khala and drove off Gruumsh; the Raven Queen later claimed dominion over winter.

Nerull: Formerly the god of the dead, Nerull ruled over the grim dominion of Pluton, where he held all the souls of mortals as powerless, miserable shades. In time the Raven Queen overthrew him and became goddess of death. See the “Rise of the Raven Queen” sidebar.

Tuern: A god of conquest and fire, Tuern was overthrown by a mortal king. Bane was the greatest of mortal tyrants in the dawn of the world, and he became so powerful that he dared to give battle to the war god. He launched an invasion of the war god’s realm, defeated Tuern, and seized the dominion for his own.

Dwarves Who Don’t Worship Moradin

Many dwarves revere Moradin first among the gods, but they also recognize that different deities hold sway over different aspects of life. Like other folk, the great majority of dwarves venerate various deities at appropriate times. Dwarves whose interests go beyond the typical values of industry, stoicism, and artisanship are just as likely to give homage to the deity of their vocation as to Moradin. The Soul Forger shaped them in body and soul long ago, but they have lived under the influence of many gods—both beneficial and malevolent—ever since.

For example, a dwarf soldier makes offerings in Moradin’s name most of the time, but when marching off to war she might call upon Kord for strength, Bane for victory, or Bahamut for honor. A dwarf tomb-keeper might take the Raven Queen as his patron, while a dwarf rogue who travels in search of adventure is likely to honor Avandra. Likewise, dwarves know that their hearts are touched by Sehanine, their minds shaped by Erathis and Ioun, and their fates overseen by the Raven Queen. They look to every corner of the pantheon for the inspiration to create works of beauty.

Rise of the Raven Queen

In the early ages of the world, the souls of mortals unclaimed by the gods were not free to pass to the great beyond after death. Instead Nerull, the god of the dead, held them in his gray, cheerless dominion of Pluton. There they would spend eternity as powerless shades, haunted by the memory of life’s rich sensation and vigor. Nerull’s dominion grew ever greater, as each day myriad souls came to his realm, never to depart. The god of the dead set his sights on making himself king over all the gods, and began to send blights and plagues into the world to speed the passage of mortals into his realm.

Then an especially powerful mortal died and came to Nerull’s domain, a beautiful and proud sorcerer-queen. Unique among the gray shades held in Pluton, her ghostly form glowed with her fierce will and ambition. Nerull deemed her a worthy consort, and he gave her form and substance so that she could rule at his side. Her name in life is forgotten now, but some knew her as Nera, which was the name that Nerull bestowed on her. She proved to be Nerull’s doom, for the sorcerer-queen refused to be second to any being, god or mortal.

Nera discovered the means by which Nerull held mortal shades in thrall and seized that power for herself. Strengthened by countless souls, she challenged the god of death and strove with him for mastery of Pluton. Although she was mighty indeed, Nerull was an old and formidable god, and even shorn of his dead legions he was too strong for her. In order to defeat him, she had to release the souls she held: each one freed gave up a tiny surge of strength as it passed from bondage. By freeing almost all the souls imprisoned in Pluton, she grew strong enough to destroy Nerull and seize his dominion over death.

After her victory, the sorcerer-queen thought to take Nerull’s place—but the other gods intervened. Rather than rising as the new deity of the dead, she instead presides over death itself. Mortal souls are no longer bound to eternal imprisonment but instead pass into the infinite, beyond the power or knowledge of the gods.

Ever since those events, the death goddess has sought to escape the strictures limiting her power. Soon after her ascension, she expunged her true name from the knowledge of all creatures and took to calling herself the Raven Queen. In this way she hoped to void the restrictions on her role. She abandoned Pluton, founding a realm of her own in the mountains of Letherna in the Shadowfell.

In the long centuries since the Raven Queen overthrew Nerull, she has slowly increased her power, adding dominion over fate and winter to her rule over death. She sorely resents the gods who denied her the full power Nerull once wielded, and she jealously guards her domain. She has no power over souls who do not bind themselves to gods or devils in life, but the Raven Queen claims all who place themselves in her power, and they are enslaved within her cold realm forever.

Small Devotions

Many practices common among the people of the world have their origin in various minor devotions to the gods. For example, someone telling a lie might splay wide the fingers of the left hand under a table or behind his or her back. Whether that person knows it or not, the gesture is meant to represent the holy symbol of Lolth, god of lies, and to ask her help in making sure the untruth is not discovered.

Another such gesture is to place the weapon of a fallen warrior in the corpse’s hand. This act is believed to arm the warrior for the next world and to show Bane, the god of war, that he or she died fighting and therefore deserves honor.

Travelers setting out on journeys often scoop up a handful of dirt or dust from the road and let it fall from their hands. Most people regard this tradition as simply checking the strength and direction of the wind, but it is meant to honor Avandra. The god is said to show a sign of the fortune awaiting the journey by blowing the dust away (which favors departure) or back toward the traveler (indicating difficulty ahead).

Implement

Clerics make use of holy symbols to help channel and direct their divine powers. A cleric wearing or holding a magic holy symbol can add its enhancement bonus to the attack rolls and the damage rolls of cleric powers, as well as cleric paragon path powers, that have the implement keyword. Without a holy symbol, a cleric can still use these powers, but he or she doesn’t gain the bonus provided by the magic implement.

Cleric Powers

Your cleric powers are called prayers. Some are better for the battle cleric and some are better for the devoted cleric, but a cleric can choose any power when making a power selection.

Many of the powers described below benefit the shielding cleric, though any cleric interested in more of a support role can benefit from them. In addition, new powers expand options for the two cleric builds described in the PHB.

Class Features

The cleric has two class features that work like powers: Channel Divinity and healing word. The Channel Divinity class feature encompasses multiple powers, three of which (divine fortune, healer’s mercy, and turn undead) are presented below. Healer’s mercy can be selected in place of turn undead.

Paragon Paths

In addition to the paragon paths in this section, the hammer of Moradin paragon path is open to clerics.

Angelic Avenger

“I am as an angel, an avenger for my god.”

You become a special servant of your god, operating with angelic powers to promote the word of your faith. When you use your angelic powers, you briefly take on the aspects of an angel: Your face blurs into angelic blankness, astral wings sprout from your back, and your lower body blurs away.

Angelic Avenger Path Features

Angelic Avenger Prayers

Anointed Champion

“Ancient blessings have I spoken over my armaments. I do not fear any power that stands against me.”

In times long past, when the gods warred with the primordials, the divine armies were arrayed in majestic regalia blessed by angelic armorers with powerful wards against their foes. By long study of holy texts, you have learned those ancient prayers and rites.

As an anointed champion, you ward yourself against your foes by sanctifying the arms and armor you bear into battle with sacred oil and special ceremonies. You speak prayers that have not been heard by mortals for centuries, conferring the ancient blessings upon your companions as well. As you perform your holy tasks, you can feel the pull of history urging you on to the same glory the armies of the gods knew as they bested their enemies in ages past.

Anointed Champion Path Features

• Anointed Armor: You gain a +1 bonus to AC.

• Anointed Weapon: You gain resistance equal to your Charisma modifier against a damage type of your choice: fire, necrotic, radiant, or thunder.

• Anointed Amulet: You gain a +1 bonus to Fortitude, Reflex, and Will.

• Anointed Holy Symbol: When you hit with a divine attack, you grant temporary hit points equal to your Charisma modifier to yourself or to an ally within your line of sight.

• Anointed Helm: You gain a +2 bonus to saving throws.

Anointed Champion Prayers

Astral Savant

“Beyond the world you know, higher powers dwell. There lies the font of my strength, and the source of your downfall.”

You are a theologian, and you have devoted yourself to learning the nature of the gods and their dominions. Through years of study, you have developed a philosophy that grants you a deep understanding of higher realities and the properties of divine power.

As an astral savant, you use your uncanny insights to tap into the raw power of the forces that shape the Astral Sea, creating a wide range of effects with your prayers. You wield divine energy in ways that other clerics cannot, warding and sustaining your allies against their foes.

Astral Savant Path Features

Astral Savant Prayers

Battle Chaplain

“Fear not, friends, for we do the work of the gods.”

When evil bubbles up from the Abyss and spills into the world, when insane hordes raid and plunder civilized lands, or when lawlessness threatens society, you fight back to preserve the world. You shoulder this burden willingly, but you can lighten the load by uniting your companions behind your holy mission. You lead through your inspiring presence, wise words, and brave deeds, with the goal of one day ushering your allies to the glory that awaits bold champions of your faith.

You are a soldier of your god, but not a proselytizer. All deities and their servants have a place in the world. Your role is to unite disparate beliefs and achieve a common victory. Your tolerance, however, does not extend to those agents of ruin who would subvert your harmonious message with their ambition and greed.

When you sing hymns and recite scripture in battle, a silver halo appears above your head as a symbol of your belief and divine blessing. Its light fills your comrades with hope and purpose, helping them to rise above the mundane and seize their destinies.

Compassionate Healer

“To alleviate the suffering of the just, the innocent, and the valiant is the highest of callings.”

Swords and spells can hold off enemies for a time, but still the best and bravest heroes fall to opposing forces. Thus, you have dedicated all your spirit to healing heroes’ injuries and sustaining their efforts. You are a master of healing, and you are not afraid to give freely of your own strength and life to aid your companions.

Even more than your fellow heroes, you willingly risk yourself so that others might live, inspiring your comrades to daring acts of courage. You are not suicidal: you’re just committed to your cause. Every wound you suffer spares another champion to fight on in the name of your god and beliefs. Death elicits no fear in you; your reward waits in the hereafter.

Compassionate Healer Path Features

Compassionate Healer Prayers

Divine Oracle

“I have seen your fate, written in the waves of the Astral Sea.”

You become the voice of your god, full of prophecy and omens. When you use your prophetic powers, your eyes glow with the silvery depths of the Astral Sea.

Divine Oracle Path Features

Divine Oracle Prayers

Holy Emissary

“I bring a message from my god—and you will hear it, on pain of death.”

You are a herald of the gods, imbued with divine will. Wherever you travel, you announce the intentions and desires of your patron. Your actions, words, and beliefs are windows into the gods’ dominions, and through them shines the divine presence.

Although you serve a single deity, you enjoy a special connection with all divine powers, allowing them to subtly influence you and those around you. You might even be moved to prophesy from time to time. Some devotees of your faith might distrust this relationship: although they too honor all the gods, they take pride in their service to a single deity.

Whenever you speak in Supernal or utter your prayers, a tongue of fire appears over your head. The flame does not burn and sheds only the faintest light, but it does identify your special status.

Holy Emissary Prayers

Messenger of Peace

“Violence should be the last resort.”

You grieve for the so-called civilized races, too many of whom are locked in useless, never-ending strife. Unless some brave soul steps forward to set a better example, constant warfare can only create more conflict. Thus you have laid down your weapons and spoken vows of nonviolence, hoping to find a civilized solution to the problems of mortals.

As a messenger of peace, you always work to find a way around combat when battle is avoidable. Diplomacy is your principal weapon: Through carefully chosen words and accurate assessments of your opponent’s desires, you might be able to circumvent conflict altogether. Not all enemies are willing to set aside their anger, though. Should battle erupt despite your best efforts, you are an eye of calm in war’s hurricane. The weak, the weary, and the sorely wounded find succor in your presence.

Messenger of Peace Path Features

Peace, Not Pacifism

Your commitment to nonviolence applies chiefly to thinking mortals who can be reasoned with. It doesn’t make sense when you deal with monsters trying to eat you, creatures such as demons or evil dragons that are destructive by their very nature, or even intelligent beings that have an unslakable thirst for violence, such as gnolls and orcs. You can fight to defend yourself and your allies, although you should use as little violence as possible against foes who might someday choose a different path. If your enemies are capable of learning from your example, urge your companions to refrain from dealing killing blows, instead taking prisoners and showing mercy to the defeated.

Messenger of Peace Prayers

Miracle Worker

“These hands have cured the sick, healed the injured, and forestalled death’s cruel touch.”

You’ve always had a knack for the healing arts. People just seem to recover more quickly under your care: Bones knit and cuts mend quickly, and even sickness flees your touch. As your mastery of divine power has strengthened, so too have your skills at tending the sick and injured. Now life energy flows through your fingertips to anyone you attend.

More than other clerics, you commit your life to alleviating suffering in any form. When you are not adventuring, you might work in the temples of any god and lend your talents to help the community, whether supplying food to the hungry or removing sickness from the afflicted. You bring these same sensibilities to an adventuring group. You move across the battlefield to shore up weakness and patch up the wounded so they can get back into the fight. You might not directly share in the glory enjoyed by your companions, but you take heart in knowing that they couldn’t have done it without you.

Miracle Worker Path Features

Miracle Worker Prayers

Radiant Servant

“I am the light of faith, banishing the darkness.”

You become the light of your god in the world, shining divine illumination into every dark corner and deep shadow. When you use your radiant powers, your countenance glows with the brightness of the sun.

Radiant Servant Path Features

Radiant Servant Prayers

Seldarine Dedicate

“Corellon guide my heart, Sehanine my arrow.”

The Seldarine, the fellowship of brothers and sisters of the woods, comprises Corellon, Sehanine, and the other gods and exarchs who dwell in the dominion of Arvandor. Revered by elves and eladrin alike, these gods watch over and protect their favored scions. Elf and eladrin clerics often worship one or another of the Seldarine, but a few pay homage to the whole, drawing their power from Arvandor’s combined wisdom.

As a Seldarine dedicate, you occupy a high position within your temples. You and the few others like you enjoy a broader connection to the gods of Arvandor than other clerics do, and you know methods for communing with them. You draw a bow as readily as you raise your holy symbol to focus your prayers.

Your weapon is inscribed with sigils and runes, which flare with emerald light when you fire a shot with a whispered prayer.

Seldarine Dedicate Path Features

Seldarine Dedicate Prayers

Stone Keeper

“Memory, like stone, lasts forever.”

Dwarves have long memories. They strengthen their recollections by retelling stories passed down since the dark days of their enslavement to giants. Preserving these tales is the responsibility of the stone keepers, dwarves chosen for their wisdom and commitment to history. These stone fathers and mothers, as they are sometimes called, chisel stories into shrine walls and temple domes to give their history a physical presence, making them part of the architecture and wonder of dwarven halls.

As a stone keeper, you concern yourself with the past, but you are not simply a scholar. You are a holy champion who draws strength from your fury over all the wrongs ever committed against your people, bringing it to bear against foes who still threaten your race. When dwarven strongholds are in danger, you are the first to unite the clans against the enemy. You also travel widely, visiting ruined dwarven kingdoms and city-states to learn their fates and to exact vengeance when it is deserved.

Your views and beliefs encompass all of history and the place your people occupy in it. You harbor a deep-seated, smoldering anger born of ancient wrongs and long centuries of grief. Your prayers focus this anger into your attacks.

Stone Keeper Path Features

Stone Keeper Prayers

Truthseeker

“The light of truth reveals all secrets and denies all falsehoods.”

Deception worms its way through the world, corroding morals and subverting ideals. Only through constant vigilance can this welling corruption be checked. Many divine servants battle obvious foes—undead, demons, and other foul creatures—but the enemies you face are far more insidious. You explore realms of shadow and deception, leading the fight against enemies who use guile instead of brutality.

To combat such forces, you armor yourself in the truth, using its radiance to burn away the lies and falsehoods your foes employ. In your presence, the enemy cannot hide or use its tricks, and it stands exposed before you.

Facing the worst sort of villains leaves its mark on you. You age prematurely, lines creasing your face, but such ravages of the body do not extend to your spirit. Each victory only firms your resolve. When you wield your truthseeker powers in the name of your god, your voice sounds like thunder and your enemies quail before your righteous presence.

Truthseeker Path Features

Warpriest

“Let loose the gift of battle!”

Your god demands battle to accomplish the tenets of your faith, and you are the chosen priest at the forefront of the war. When you call upon your divine powers, your weapons glow with holy light.
