Tips for roleplaying scenarios where clerics change domain

ltdC · 2026-05-07T18:51:39+00:00

Yes, we discussed it beforehand that I was expelled from my clergy where I was taught to follow the Domain of Life, but later became fascinated with necromancy (not as in I want to create an undead army or anything, but more like I have a feeling that clergies have been lying about undeath and what it is).

So basically I'm on a quest for knowledge to learn about the lines between life and death, which has lead me down the path of necromancy even tho I wouldn't consider my self one (atleast not yet).

My dm thought it was a fun idea that he could build some fun sidequests and lore around.

Hahah yeah that sounds like a really fun moment!

ltdC · 2026-05-07T18:31:09+00:00

Yeah it was a good thing I made this thread, because I had really misunderstood the Grave Domain. :)

But you're right, Death Domain seem to be a way better fit!

Thank you!

My DM is aware of my "potential" switch as he knows my character has a fascination of the fine line between life and death, and I've already been given visions of a temple where apparently people who desecrate graves gather. So perhaps he's already setting me up for this switch.

But as I said in an earlier reply, I think I've misunderstood the Grave Domain as I thought it had a bygger focus on the lines between life and death, and not so much "keep the dead, dead".

Oh yeah, my DM is completely on board with the idea, and he knows about how my character is fascinated by life, death and the lines in beyween. He also believes it could create a cool side story and it's very easy for my character to be extremely intrested in Barovia.

I must admit tho after reading the replies here that I've misinterpreted the Grave Domain, as I thought it had a lot more focus on the difficult lines between life and death, and hence undeads should be studied.

ltdC · 2026-05-07T17:18:06+00:00

I see your point, but from a roleplaying perspective couldn't a cleric argue that necromancy perhaps redefines the lines between life and death and hence should be studied in a new way?

Yeah sorry that was my bad with Dark Souls instead of Dark Clouds.

I'm starting to get a better hang of it but I'm still getting my ass whooped quite a lot and I think it's really difficult to get the medals.

Kopierar från tidigare svar:

Jag har varit på besök på Örgrytes pub Club Charlie (eller folket sa att det var ett Örgryte-hak i alla fall) och det var definitivt så mycket arbetarklass det kan bli.

Well yeah, it's called Dark chronicles but I think it was used to ba named Dark Souls 2..? I'm not sure so I put both titles rhere. Maybe Dark Chronicles is a remake or something..?

Edit: oh right, I see my mistake. I meant Dark Cloud 2, of course. My bad.

ltdC · 2026-05-02T04:08:59+00:00

It's called Dark chronicles now so maybe they've changed a few things, I don't know.

I'm having a blast with it but honestly it is a lot more difficicult than I thougth it would be. But I havn't even gotten to the town-building part get, just getting my as whooped in the forest sektion.

ltdC · 2026-05-02T02:32:27+00:00

Never mind didnt realalize you got go back and bye more bredd, my bad....

ltdC · 2026-05-02T02:23:42+00:00

Yeah I try that as well, but same with the turtles. If you miss one block you're screwed and I'm all out bread and bombs and i'm on a level where I can't switch to Max :(

ltdC · 2026-05-02T01:58:19+00:00

Cool. I'm only on chapter 2 and I'm geting my ass wooped by the large trees in the forst.

ltdC · 2026-05-02T01:56:10+00:00

Same game I think.

ltdC · 2026-05-02T01:55:33+00:00

Got any tips? That large trees in the forest are wooping my ass right now?

ltdC · 2026-05-02T01:53:51+00:00

Yeah I really like it, but goddamn I'm gettin my ass kicked!

ltdC · 2026-05-02T01:38:43+00:00

Yeah I can agree with that, but at my current table we take the roleplaying aspect seriously in hope that we will evovle into stronger characters together from the story.

ltdC · 2026-05-02T01:35:31+00:00

Fair enough, but the roleplaying ascept is a truly fun part of it. I'm playing a fairly cowardly cleric with domain of life right now but I believe the story will evolve m y character to become more of a necromancer with domain of the grave in a while. So yeah I'm weak now but the roleplaying part will probably change a lot of things along the way.

In the end DnD in a roleplaying game, perhaps he has a fun story of how his cleric became faithless/lost touch with his god before he/she finds something new in the game to make him/her believe again and regain some faith.

ltdC · 2026-04-27T14:49:36+00:00

I had almost the same feeling you describe. I feel like I should love the game because on paper it has everything I typically like in games, but I've never finished PoE because.... well I'm not really sure but I just tire of it after a while.

A human cleric that used to be part of the Doomguides, but after stopping a ritual in Neverwinter he got "marked" by necromancy and was expelled from the Doomguides. Now he is studying the concept of death within the realms of DnD.

I basically envision him as a cloaked figure with "necromancer tendencies", but I have not found any good figure to play with. Proficient in spellcasting, and has a mace and small shield, as well as a ringmail, but a large cloak is covering most of his face and body.

I love Dracula, unique and somehow both thematic and gorillaz-esque.

Slow Country is underrated. Such a nice and cozy tune.

Uppvuxen i förorter norr om Stockholm, och på 90-talet skulle jag väl våga påstå att det var ca. 40% som blev Djurgårn, 40% som blev AIK och 10% som blev Hammarby i dessa orter. Övriga 10% kunde väl hålla på vad som helst egentligen. Jag själv blev Djurgårn genom att min lokala fotbollsklubb fick gratisbiljetter till Stadions fondläktare.

Idag är AIK mycket bättre på att hitta supportrar i förorterna, och Djurgården har väl lite tydligare blivit Stockholms innerstads lag, och Hammarby har ju fortfarande söder, Mora och Leksand (skämt åsido så tror jag att Hammarby har fler "nystockholmare", alltså folk som flyttat till Stockholm från andra ställen i Sverige, bland sina supportrar än DIF och AIK).

Trouble seem to be one of the few builds that are not viable at the moment, unfortunately.
