Cleric Domain skill bonuses

Post by Anime Sword Fighter » Wed Nov 20, 2019 12:14 am

Add more skill bonuses to a few different cleric domains to increase variety and potential functionality away from the Travel + Trickery meta. I've not listed all of them, just a few I think are severely under-used. I've modeled the changes after the "Divine Trickery" widget that you get when taking the Trickery Domain, so each domain I list would give a widget that gives a bonus equal to 1 per 2 levels for 5 + Cha. mod turns to its respective skills.

Air: "Divine Wind" - DISCIPLINE and TUMBLE

Animal: "Divine Friendship" - ANIMAL EMPATHY and CONCENTRATION

Death: "Divine Silence" - LISTEN and MOVE SILENT

Destruction: "Divine Deconstruction" - OPEN LOCK and DISABLE TRAP

Earth: "Divine Fortification" - DISCIPLINE and CONCENTRATION

Evil: "Divine Terror" - INTIMIDATE and TAUNT

Fire: "Divine Flames" - PERFORM and SEARCH

Good: "Divine Peace" - HEAL and PERSUADE

Knowledge: "Divine Insight" - LORE and APPRAISE

Magic: "Divine Arcana" - SPELLCRAFT and UMD

Plant: "Divine Sprout" - TUMBLE and HIDE

Water: "Divine Sense" LISTEN and SPOT


maybe unbalanced, the domain disparity is just something I think about when I make a cleric.

I've approved a domain rework/expansion in a prevous suggestion. I will reject this, but the idea of having associated skill bonuses is nice.

Rejected.
