It also states that not everyone worships the same deity in the same way.
If a human grows up in Dwarven society, there is no reason for them not to worship a less well known Dwarven deity such as Haela Brightaxe. The introduction to that section also makes clear that each of the races might even have their own pantheon in which they worship. If you are asking about the Nonhuman Deities, they are examples of gods that are shared by both Greyhawk and Forgotten realms settings, and so are not listed in either. I see no information that says you have to pick a deity of the same race as yourself. Can a cleric choose a deity of a different race to their self? Ground, decide which god your deity(sic?) serves or served, andĬonsider the deity’s suggested domains when selecting If you’re playing a cleric or a character with the Acolyte back Appendix B page 293 of the Players Handbook: (Except for the Life Domain, a cleric of any deity may take the Life Domain) However! However, the list of domains in the god appendix, is not canon, but is rather recommendations. No, a cleric must choose a domain that is related to their deity. Can a cleric choose a domain that is unrelated to their deity? Did you enter this service willingly? Or did the god choose you, impelling you into service with no regard fo your wishes? How do the temple pirests of your faith regard you: as a champion or a troublemaker? What are your ultimate goals? Does your deity have a special task for you? Or are you striving to prove yourself worth of a great quest?Īs you can see from this paragraph, it's entirely possible for your own personal goals and aspirations to be counter to those of the deity you choose.Īn example of this might be in the Tyranny of Dragons campaign: an evil deity who hates dragons might have forced you into service to fight against evil dragons. Once you've chosen a deity, consider your cleric's relationship to that god. Check with your DM to learn which deities are in your campaign. Appendix B includes lists of many of the gods of the universe. In the introductory paragraph for the cleric it reads (page 35 of the Player's Handbook):Īs you create a cleric, the most important question to consider is which deity to serve and what principles you want your character to embody. No, your alignment does not need to match the alignment of your deity. Is there any requirement that the alignment be the same or close to their deity's?
