Repose Domain

[CorneliusVonRichten]

Would it be possible to include a balanced version of the Repose domain for Kelemvor and others?

Why? All you would get is Wail of the Banshee.

Once a day, the spellcaster may kill a target instantly with but a touch, though the difficulty is affected by both the skill of the user and the strength of the target.

Really doubt this will be added. Giving this to a Level 1 cleric is nasty. The death domain is out there and offers enough to not warrant creating a new domain here. Even with balancing, there are just many other places we can put our resources right now. That being said, it's Kael's time, he can donate it as he pleases

-1st level
Deathwatch
-2nd level
Gentle Repose
-3rd level
Speak with Dead
-8th level
Surelife

I am mostly interested in those spells and I said balanced because of the 'Killing' ability.

Speak with Dead and Deathwatch would not work without DM intervention anyway. I would request DM assistance for that.

Gentle Repose is the same thing. There really is no need to mechanically keep corpses around, and its better off RP'd(under DM supervision if necessary). Besides, messing with corpse decay with scripts can lead to some bad bugs.

Surelife... well ok, there are situations where this could make a difference, however, the situations in Sundren that would warrant this spell mechanically are very rare(for now anyway) and it would be a waste of resources to add in, IMO. I would file this one under DM request as well.

It would be cool to have every spell, every feat, and everything DnD offers in the PnP game in a video game, but realistically there are alot of things that do squat without active DM oversight anyway, which is the norm in PnP.

Thank you c2k, everything you said in there I agree with. Most spells that are to be considered 'RP spells' don't have an effect that's really pre-programmable or it would take so much effort that 10 other spells or another feature could be made in the same amount of time (and then still be limited).

It's probably better to simply ask during a DM event if you can 'spontaneously convert' one of your memorised spells to an RP spell. I think most wouldn't have that big a problem with it since it adds a good lot of possibilities that don't revolve around killing things, and that's definitely a plus.

I see, but how would that be handled, since I would lack the Domain itself which grants all those spells in the first place.

Just take death, in my opinion.
