#1 rvrchamp Nov 17, 2010 3:48:19	For our upcoming campaign I came up with the idea to play a half-giant barbarian who has the elemental priest theme and would use a feat to multiclass cleric. My DM and I fully realize "the gods are silent" but found a way to roleplay in why I'm multi-classed as a cleric... My question is: do the "normal" Dark Sun campaign rules allow for clerics at all? Using the new character generator I am not able to choose ANY divine class (like paladins, or clerics). On page 10 in the Dark Sun Campaign Book, however, there is a small mention about how DM's and players may work in divine characters.  Along with this question, and perhaps this is a question better suited for the character generator forums, is there a way to "break" the rules in the character generator? If divine classes are "strictly forbidden" by rules standards, how can I circumvent that rule using the wizards character generator? Thanks a ton!

So, the CB won't help you here, but nothing stops you from working something out with your DM as you seem to have done. Happy gaming!

Imperfect, but it'll do.
