 A divine character is any character for whom worship of a greater power -- often a deity but sometimes a more abstract force or philosophy -- is an important part of daily life. Giving your character an allegiance to a set of beliefs and a connection to forces beyond the mortal world can enrich the D&D experience, no matter the race and class of your character. Within these pages you'll find divine connections to prowess in battle, stealth, negotiation -- and even arcane magic. Whether you're a cleric of peerless faith, a shadowy killer-for-hire, a crusading paladin, or a wizard in search of greater mysteries, there's something in here for you. Players can read through the entire book without hesitation, and DMs can use the material to generate their own surprises without any help!
