Where can I find good information on Priests/devine magic/religions/gods... in a word "cleric". I already know about the bit in Thieves World, but has anybody...
In our DQ group, one of us tried a cleric system for a few campaigns. We decided it was interesting but not very useful, as clerics became just a new class of...
