Entity: Cleric

Source Player Core pg. 217 ^2.0

You are an ordained priest of your deity and have even learned how to cast a few divine spells. Though your main training lies elsewhere, your religious calling provides you divine gifts.

Although many characters profess faith in the gods, the cleric archetype represents a character of another class who’s been acknowledged by a particular deity and granted divine spellcasting. Before a character takes the cleric archetype, it’s important to consider the god’s anathema and whether they’ll be able to avoid it. The many domains available to clerics of different deities also present a variety of options for focus spells.

• Martial clerics are typically looking for a potent domain spell or some healing to use in a pinch.
• Divine witch clerics double down as the ultimate divine spellcasters.
• Other spellcaster clerics diversify their options, becoming theurgic characters who combine two magical traditions.
