If divine?, does it still need to be a ring? :plotting: Or can it be another item worn.. I agree it still nees an equivalent of limited wish, so Miracle seems fine by me, although Miracle is a massive 9th lvl instead of 7th for limited wish. hmmz... (and any of the correct alignment spells:cloak of chaos, holy or unholy aura) Effect of item, roughly: +4 divine bonus to AC,+2 to all saves, only given if of the correct alignment. Lay on hands as per paladin ability. but equal to her total character level (wearer only). +2 spells per effective priest caster level (+2 1st, +2 2nd etc.). meaning, if the wearer is 4th lvl priest, and has the feat practiced spell caster giving him +6 levels he counts as a 10th lvl effectively. Spells memorized: 1 is of free choice of the wearer, other is onto DM's discretion as it must adhere to the wearers gods philosophy. (maybe of the domain spells available or of any other spell (within his spell list) deemed fitting to further the gods cause.) any ideas/ comments on abilities and cost?

It's not the same, but similar. I didn't factor in the slight alignment restriction, as it isn't much of a restricition. Using common sense: Too expensive. Spend your money on wisdom booster, a wand of cure light wounds etc.

A reduction of 50% is quite something, however. The restricitions in the DMG (class only etc.) only give 70%. If you allow spells from ALL Domains a deity can give, it wouldn't even be a restriction, but an additional bonus, as this will probably increase the spell list. E. G.: A deity gives access to the travel domain, but a cleric has chosen two other domains. If your Ring grants use of spells in the travel domain, the cleric could suddenly cast Fly.

But he would grant them to you (the wearer) only if you already had said Domains, so no freebee additions.
