The Death Domain is concerned with the forces that cause death, as well as the negative energy that gives rise to undead creatures. Deities such as Zalera, the Death Seraph; Shemhazai, the Betrayer; and Mateus, the Corrupt are patrons of necromancers, death knights, and vampires. Most White Mages who dwell down this path are found to become corrupt and evil, with those trying to employ their powers for good eventually succumbing to the darkness.

Death Domain Spells

Bonus Proficiency

From 1st Level onwards, you gain proficiency with simple and martial melee weapons, light armour, and medium armour.

Channel Divinity

Touch of Death

You can use your Channel Divinity to impart an intense necrotic curse onto your foe. Starting at 2nd level, when you hit a creature with a melee attack, you can use Channel Divinity to curse that creature for 1 minute. The next time it takes DARK damage, it consumes the mark and the creature takes extra DARK damage equal to 5 + 3 × your White Mage Level. Furthermore, if after the damage is resolved, the creature is below 50% of its maximum HP, it has a 35% chance to be afflicted with

Instant KO

Life's Thread

From 2nd Level onwards, whenever you would normally roll one or more dice to restore HP with a spell to a creature at 0 HP, you ignore the healing penalty imposed and instead use the highest number possible for each dice.

Soul Passage

Starting at 6th level, you gain brief control over your soul even after you have been knocked unconscious. Once per long rest, when you are brought to 0 HP, are knocked

Unconscious

Asleep

While this ability is in effect, you do not need to make any death saving throws at the start of each of your turns (if your body or your ethereal self takes damage while at 0 HP, you still fail death saving throws), and your actions are limited to Spellcasting from your ethereal self, with your spells having the ability to extend into the material plane. During this time, all DARK damage dealt by your White Mage spells and any White Mage abilities ignore all forms of resistance to DARK damage.

If you die, this effect ends prematurely. If your body is stable or has at least 1 HP, you can choose to return to it as a bonus action, thus ending this effect. Either way, when the duration of this effect ends, you are returned to your body.

Divine Strike

At 10th level, once on each of your turns when you hit a creature with a weapon attack, you can cause the attack to deal an extra 1d8 DARK damage to the target. When you reach 14th level, the extra damage increases to 2d8.

Reaper

You have learned to harness the soul energy of creatures around you. Starting at 14th level, when an enemy you can see dies within 20m of you, you or one creature of your choice that is within 20m of you regains HP equal to the number of Hit Dice of the creature that died. You can use this ability only if you aren't Incapacitated (but are still able to use it during Soul Passage). Once you use it, you can't do so again until the start of your next turn.

The Judgment Domain is focused on exacting justice – whichever side of the moral compass your lie on. Whether it is the warped justice of Zeromus, the Condemner; the cold, harsh judgment of Exodus, the Judge-Sal; or the powerful indignant fury of Halmarut, the Arbiter, the teachings of deities within this Domain lie mainly in the promise of retribution and vengeance – those who wronged you must pay the price and expiation must be made by the offending party.

Judgment Domain Spells

Bonus Proficiency

From 1st Level onwards, you gain proficiency with all armour, and shields; simple and martial weapons.

Channel Divinity

Voice of Authority

Starting at 2nd level, you can use your Channel Divinity to exert an intimidating presence over others.

As an action, each creature of your choice that can see or hear you within 10m of you must succeed on a WIS saving throw or be

Charmed

Tip the Scales

From 2nd Level onwards, whenever you cast a Synergy spell, you can force a creature within 20m to make a WIS saving throw. On a failed save, they become condemned until the end of your next turn.

While condemned, a creature takes a d4 penalty to any ability check, or attack roll, that it makes, and whenever it uses an ability that forces other creatures to make a saving throw, it takes a d4 penalty to its save DC for that instance.

Spell Breaker

Starting at 6th level, whenever you cast a Synergy spell on an ally with a spell of 1st level or higher, you can also end one spell of your choice on that creature. The level of the spell you end must be equal to or lower than the level of the spell slot you use to cast the Synergy spell.

Divine Strike

At 10th level, once on each of your turns when you hit a creature with a weapon attack, you can cause the attack to deal an extra 1d8 PSYCHIC damage to the target. When you reach 14th level, the extra damage increases to 2d8.

Indignation

Retribution comes swift and deadly toward those to whom you mete it. Starting at 14th level, when a creature within 20m of you deals damage to you or an ally within 20m, you can expend your reaction and force them to make a WIS saving throw. On a failed save, they take PSYCHIC damage equal to your White Mage Level and are condemned for 1 minute. A creature can repeat the saving throw at the end of each of its turns to try to remove this effect.

You can use this ability a number of times equal to your WIS modifier (minimum once), and this replenishes on a short or long rest.

The gods of knowledge – including Loghrif, the Transcendent; Emet-Selch, Angel of Truth; and Zodiark, Keeper of Precepts – value learning and understanding above all. Some, like Loghrif, teach that knowledge is to be gathered and shared in libraries in universities. Still, others like Zodiark hoard knowledge and keep its secrets to themselves. Followers of these gods study esoteric lore, collect old tomes, and learn all they can.

Knowledge Domain Spells

Channel Divinity

Knowledge of the Ages

Starting at 2nd level, as an action, you can use your Channel Divinity to choose one skill or tool. For 10 minutes, you have proficiency with the chosen skill or tool.

Blessing of Knowledge

At 2nd level, you learn two languages of your choice. You also become proficient in your choice of two of the following skills: Arcana, History, Nature, or Religion.

Your proficiency bonus is doubled for any ability check you make that uses either of those skills.

Channel Divinity

Read Thoughts

At 6th level, as an action, you can use your Channel Divinity to choose one creature that you can see within 20m of you. That creature must make a WIS saving throw. If the creature succeeds on the saving throw, you can't use this ability on it again until you finish a long rest.

If the creature fails its save, you can read its surface thoughts (those foremost in its mind, reflecting its current emotions and what it is actively thinking about) while it is within 20m of you. This effect lasts for 1 minute.

During that time, you can use your action to end this effect and cast the Suggestion spell on the creature without expending a spell slot. The target automatically fails its saving throw against the spell.

Potent Spellcasting

At 10th level, you can add your WIS modifier to one damage roll of any White Mage cantrip that you cast.

Visions of the Past

Starting at 14th level, you can spend at least 1 minute in meditation and prayer, then receive dreamlike, shadowy glimpses of recent events. You can meditate in this way for a number of minutes equal to your Wisdom score and must maintain concentration during that time, as if you were casting a spell.

Once you use this feature, you can't use it again until you finish a short or long rest.

• Object Reading: Holding an object as you meditate, you can see visions of the object's previous owner. After meditating for 1 minute, you learn how the owner acquired and lost the object, as well as the most recent significant event involving the object and that owner. If the object was owned by another creature in the recent past (within a number of days equal to your WIS score), you can spend 1 additional minute for each owner to learn the same information about that creature.
• Area Reading: As you meditate, you see visions of recent events in your immediate vicinity (a room, street, tunnel, clearing, or the like, up to a 20m cube), going back a number of days equal to your WIS score. For each minute you meditate, you learn about one significant event, beginning with the most recent. Significant events typically involve powerful emotions, such as battles and betrayals, marriages and murders, births and funerals. However, they might also include more mundane events that are nevertheless important in your current situation.

The Life domain focuses on the vibrant positive energy that sustains life. The gods of life promote vitality and health through healing the sick and wounded, caring for those in need, and driving away the forces of death and undeath. Almost any non-evil deity can claim influence over this domain, but the ones with primary influence are Fandaniel, the Protector; and Emmeroloth, Holy Queen.

Life Domain Spells

Channel Divinity

Preserve Life

From 2nd Level onwards, you can use your Channel Divinity to heal the badly injured. As an action, you speak a prayer and evoke healing energy that can restore a number of HP equal to 10 × your White Mage Level. Choose any number of creatures within 10m of you, and divide the HP among them. This feature can restore a creature to no more than half of its maximum HP. You can't use this feature on an undead or a construct.

Life Bringer

From 2nd Level onwards, your healing spells are more effective. Whenever you cast a spell of 1st level or higher to restore HP to a creature, the creature regains additional HP equal to 2 + the spell's level.

Blessed Healer

From Level 6 onwards, when you cast a spell of 1st level or higher that heals a creature other than yourself, you regain HP equal to 2 + the spell's level.

Potent Spellcasting

At 10th level, you can add your WIS modifier to one damage roll of any White Mage cantrip that you cast.

Master of Healing

From Level 14 onwards, you have become a master of all healing spells. When you would normally roll one or more dice to restore HP with a spell, you instead choose to use the highest number possible for each die. For example, instead of restoring 2d6 HP to a creature, you restore 12. Further, any excess healing is converted into temporary HP, to a maximum of your White Mage Level, manifesting itself as a protective shield.

You can use this ability a number of times equal to your WIS modifier (minimum once), and this replenishes on a long rest.

Gods of light – including Igeyorhm, the Martyr; Lahabrea, Abyssal Celebrant; and Ultima, the High Seraph – promote the ideals of rebirth and renewal, redemption, truth, vigilance, and beauty, often using the symbol of the sun. White Mages who follow a deity over the Domain of Light are perhaps the most iconic, being charged with chasing away lies and burning away darkness.

Light Domain Spells

Bonus Cantrip

At Level 1, you gain the Dancing Lights cantrip if you don't already know it.

Channel Divinity

Radiance of the Dawn

Starting at 2nd level, you can use your Channel Divinity to harness sunlight, banishing darkness and dealing holy damage to your foes.

As an action, any magickal darkness within 10m of you is dispelled. Additionally, each hostile creature within 10m of you must make a CON saving throw | Fail: They take HOLY damage equal to 2d10 + your White Mage Level. | Success: half damage. A creature that has total cover from you is not affected.

Warding Flare

From 2nd Level onwards, you can interpose divine light between yourself and an attacking creature. When you are attacked by a creature within 10m of you that you can see, you can use your reaction to impose Disadvantage on the attack roll, causing light to flare before the attacker before it hits or misses. A creature that can't be Blinded is immune to this ability.

You can use this ability a number of times equal to your WIS modifier (minimum once). You regain all expended uses when you finish a long rest.

Improved Flare

Starting at 6th Level, you can also use your Warding Flare ability when a creature that you can see within 10m of you attacks a creature other than you.

Potent Spellcasting

At 10th level, you can add your WIS modifier to one damage roll of any White Mage cantrip that you cast.

Corona of Light

Starting at 14th Level, you can use your action to activate an aura of sunlight that lasts for 1 minute or until you dismiss it using another action. You emit bright light in a 20m radius and dim light 20m beyond that. Your enemies in the bright light have Disadvantage on saving throws against any spell or Channel Divinity option that deals FIRE or HOLY damage.

Gods of nature are as varied as the natural world itself. On the one hand, Nabriales, the Majestic, is the primary deity overseeing the lawful domain of nature. White Mages who serve Nabriales or gods like him may perform tasks like hunting evil monstrosities that despoil woodlands, bless the harvest of the faithful, or wither the crops of those who anger their gods. On the other hand, those who serve Cúchulainn, the Impure usually find themselves in service of propogating and looking after bogs, swamps, and even diseased forests.

Nature Domain Spells

Bonus Proficiency

At Level 1, you gain proficiency with light armour and medium armour; and simple weapons.

Channel Divinity

Nature's Grasp

From Level 2 onwards, you can use your Channel Divinity to invoke primeval forces to ensnare a foe. As an action, you can cause spectral vines to spring up and reach for all creatures inside an 8m Cube within 20m of you. The creatures must succeed on a STR or DEX saving throw (its choice) or be

Restrained

While restrained by the vines, the affected creature, or a creature within 2m of it, can use an action to make a STR ability check against your spell save DC. On a success, the creature is freed and the vines vanish.

Acolyte of Nature

At Level 2, you gain the Nature's Boon cantrip if you don't already know it. Further, you also gain proficiency in one of the following skills of your choice: Animal Handling, Nature, or Survival.

Dampen Elements

From 6th Level onwards, when you or a creature within 10m of you takes EARTH, FIRE, or ICE damage, you can use your reaction to grant Resistance to the creature against that instance of damage.

Divine Strike

At 10th level, once on each of your turns when you hit a creature with a weapon attack, you can cause the attack to deal an extra 1d8 EARTH, FIRE, or ICE damage (your choice) to the target. When you reach 14th level, the extra damage increases to 2d8.

Nature's Protection

From Level 14 onwards, your deity sends you spirits to protect you when you are vulnerable. If you are reduced to 0 HP or are Incapacitated against your will, you can choose to gain the benefits of this ability, and it is as if you cast a 9th-level spell. This spell summons four of the same type of beast of your choice that are CR 2 or lower (e.g. Coeurl, Giant Spider, Polar Bear, Wyrdhare). The conjured beasts appear within 6m of you. If they receive no commands from you, they protect you from harm and attack your foes. The spell lasts for 1 hour, requiring no concentration; or until you dismiss it (no action required).

Once you use this ability, you can't use it again until you finish a long rest.

Gods who oversee the Domain of Tempest – such as Famfrit, the Darkening Cloud; and Deudalaphon, the Benevolent – govern storms, sea, and sky. Tempest gods send their followers to inspire fear and reverence in the common folk, either to keep those folk on the path of righteousness, or to encourage them to offer sacrifices of propitiation to ward off divine wrath.

Tempest Domain Spells

Storm Soul

At Level 2, by the blessing of your deity, you gain a swimming speed of 10m and are able to breathe underwater.

Furthermore, you can thunderously rebuke attackers. When a creature within 2m of you that you can see hits you with an attack, you can use your reaction to cause the creature to make a DEX saving throw. The creature takes 2d8 LIGHTNING or SONIC damage (your choice) on a failed saving throw, and half as much damage on a successful one. You can use this ability a number of times equal to your WIS modifier (minimum once) and this replenishes on a long rest.

Gods of Trickery – such as Chaos, Walker of the Wheel; Mitron, the Chastiser; and Renta'ak, the Dealer of Fate – are mischief-makers and instigators who stands as a constant challenge to the accepted order amongst both gods and mortals. They're patrons of thieves, scoundrels, gamblers, rebels, and liberators. Their priests are a disruptive force in the world, preferring subterfuge and deception, rather than direct confrontation.

At Level 1, you learn the Minor Illusion cantrip.

Bonus Proficiency

At Level 1, you gain proficiency in simple and martial ranged weapons

Channel Divinity

Invoke Duplicity

From Level 2 onwards, you can use your Channel Divinity to create an illusory duplicate of yourself. As an action, you create a perfect illusion of yourself that lasts for 1 minute, or until you lose your concentration (but this skill does not count towards your concentration limit). The illusion appears in an unoccupied space that you can see within 10m of you. As a bonus action on your turn, you can move the illusion up to 10m to a space you can see, but it must remain within 40m of you.

For the duration, you can cast spells as though you were in the illusion's space, but you must use your own senses.

Blessing of the Trickster

War has many manifestations. It can make heroes of ordinary people. It can be desperate and horrific, with acts of cruelty and cowardice eclipsing instances of excellence and courage. In either case, the gods of war watch over warriors and reward them for their great deeds. The priests of such gods excel in battle, inspiring others to fight the good fight. Gods of war include champions of honour and chivalry, such as Pashtarot, the Knight-Star. Still, others might promote destruction and pillaging, such as Adrammelech, the Wroth. Other war gods, such as Belias, the Gigas; and Re'lar, Dragon of Destruction, might take more neutral stances, encouraging war in all its manifestations.

War Domain Spells

Bonus Proficiency

At Level 1, you gain proficiency with all armour and shields; simple and martial weapons.

Channel Divinity

Guided Strike

Starting at 2nd Level, you can use your Channel Divinity to strike with supernatural accuracy. When you make an attack roll, you can use your Channel Divinity to gain a +10 bonus to the roll. You make this choice after you see the roll, but before the DM says whether the attack hits or misses.

War Priest

At Level 2, your god delivers bolts of inspiration to you in the heat of combat. When you use the Attack action, you can make one weapon attack as a bonus action.

You can use this ability a number of times equal to your WIS modifier (minimum once). You regain all expended uses when you finish a long rest.

Channel Divinity

War God's Blessing

Starting at 6th Level, you can use your Channel Divinity to impart divine guidance to an ally.

The Art of War

From Level 14 onwards, you have become a master tactician of war. Whenever combat is initiated, you may roll up to Xd20 dice and set them aside, where X is your WIS modifier (X has a minimum of one). These dice are considered to be Strategy Dice. Your Strategy is set in motion after 4 – Z rounds have passed, where Z is the number of dice you chose not to roll when combat initiated.

While your Strategy is in motion, you may replace any attack roll, ability check, or saving throw from any creature that you can see or have seen in the past minute with any of your Strategy Dice. You must choose whether to replace it before the creature makes their roll. Your Strategy remains in motion for 1 minute or until combat ends. When this ability ends, any remaining Strategy Dice are discarded.
