Hallo,Folgende Frage plagt mich :Ich dachte die ganze Zeit, daß ein Volk nur Götter aus SEINEM Pantheon als Schutzgottheit wählen darf. Allerdings scheint das nicht zu stimmen: Drizzt Do'Urden hat eine menschliche Göttin... woran liegt das? Darf man also Götter einen fremden Volkes wählen?Gruß aus Dessau
What are the rules regarding divine spellcasters in thenew FORGOTTEN REALMS setting? Can a human become acleric of a nonhuman deity? Can a human become apaladin, druid, or ranger of a nonhuman deity?If you’re a divine spellcaster of any kind in theFORGOTTEN REALMS setting, you must choose a patron deity.When choosing a patron deity, you follow the “one-step” ruledescribed in the Alignment subsection of the Cleric section ofChapter 3: Classes in the Player’s Handbook. Your alignmentcan be up to one “step” away from your patron’s. For example,a chaotic neutral ranger can choose Malar (a chaotic evil deity)as his patron, but could not choose Mielikki (a neutral gooddeity). Note that the one-step rule applies to anyone choosing apatron, not just divine spellcasters. (See page 39 of theFORGOTTEN REALMS Campaign Setting book.)The FORGOTTEN REALMS setting has no rule restricting therace of noncleric divine spellcasters (consider the notableexample of Drizzt as a ranger of Mielikki), and neither does theD&D game. The D&D game, however, requires that clerics ofracial deities be the correct race (see page 31 in the Player’sHandbook), and the FORGOTTEN REALMS setting has no rulecontravening that. So, you could have a human paladin of adwarf deity or a human druid of an elf deity, but you could nothave a human cleric of a dwarf or elf deity. (Such charactersshould be fairly rare, however, and it’s entirely appropriate forDMs to demand some sort of explanation for the character’srather odd choice of a deity.)A human cleric in the FORGOTTEN REALMS setting shouldchoose a deity from either the Faerûnian or Mulhorandipantheon depending upon where the character lives or grew up.Note that your choice of deity affects whether you’re favored inyour region, which in turn will affect your starting equipmentand what feats are initially available to you. (See CharacterRegion on pages 8 and 28 of the FORGOTTEN REALMS CampaignSetting book.)
