07-03-07, 08:48 PM The basic premise is that in ages past the creater of the universe died / an overdiety was killed / the cosmic forge was shattered and all that is left are small crystals that grant great power. (Some even say that they are the gods kidney stones)
Collect enough and you might even be able to become a God!

07-03-07, 08:49 PM Investing Clerics with Power!

Need to work on what it cost to give clerics powers and what kind of return you get from worshipers.

Terms:
Clergy is and highly devoted character. (Cleric, Druid, Paladin, etc)
Faithful would be a worshiper with minor powers. (ranger, some prestige classes, and NPC class)
Worshipers are the people who beleive and pray to you (and only your) regularly
Believers are the people who say a prayer to Tempus before battle or Mages who give and offering before making an item, but do not pray exlusivly or regularly.

Cleric = 12
Druid = 11
Paladin = 5
Ranger = 2

Cost to grant powers:
Domain (you must have it already) = 1
Spell Casting (full) = 1 each new spell level (so 9 max for cleric)
Spell Casting (partial) = 1 every 2 spell levels (so 2 max for ranger)
Undead = 1
Animal Companion = 1
Druid abilities = 1
Special Mount = 1
Paladin Abilities = 1

You may wonder why you would give up your own power, but the more clergy you have, the more worshipers you have, and worshipers provide you with power. This is not a quick path to power.

Beleivers provide 1 point for every 10,000
Worshipers provide 1 point every 100

Soul Contract
Prerequisites: You must have at least 1 worshiper
Cost: 10
Benefit: Whenever a worshiper/faithful/clergy of yours dies, thier soul comes to you provideing you with a bit of power. Any power that you invested with them is returned, as well as a bit more.
You do not collect the souls of believers.
Worshipers provide you with 1 point every 1000 souls.
Faithful count as their level+1, and clergy count as twice thier level.

As well you are able to grant spells that can bring back the dead. Returning a souls has a permant cost of 1 point. If the soul belongs to another God then they uaually require payment of 1 point as well.

Upgrade Cost: Benefit:
