We'll start a campain i ravenloft next week and i haven't yet decided what to do.

In my group thre are a sorcerer(wild magic), a bard( college of valor), a monk( open hand), a paladin( oath of vengeance), a rogue( assassin) and maybe a fighter and a wizard.

I dont know what i want to do, or cleric( kwnoledge domain) or warlock( great old one + tome).

 

Some advices?

8 party members? If both the bard and paladin are healing, then you don't necessarily need to be a cleric.  Seems like you can pick whatever you want as mostly everything is covered.  A cleric or druid could still be fun to play though, even if not needed.

With that much players, just play what you feel suits you best, your group already has most bases covered.

As long you don't know if a wizard will really join, take the warlock for arcane in- and out-of-combat utility, especially the ritual spells. ;)

I had a lot of fun playing a cleric in Ravenloft, though it would have been a cleric of the light domain in 5e (the game was 3.5 so I had sun and healing as domains). Most of the bad guys end up being undead and it gives you a ton of roleplaying opportunities. Between a cleric and paladin, you'd have all the healing covered and a lot of undead destroyed. :D

 

That being said, I've never played a warlock. I wonder if a warlock with an undead-hating arc-fey patron would be cool?
