class features:
Divine Domain
1st-level cleric featureChoose one domain related to your deity. Your choice grants you domain spells and other features when you choose it at 1st level. It also grants you additional ways to use Channel Divinity when you gain that feature at 2nd level, and additional benefits at 6th, 8th, and 17th levels.
Domain Spells
Each domain has a list of spells that you gain at the cleric levels noted in the domain description. Once you gain a domain spell, you always have it prepared, and it doesn't count against the number of spells you can prepare each day. If you have a domain spell that doesn't appear on the cleric spell list, the spell is nonetheless a cleric spell for you.
Channel Divinity
2nd-level cleric featureAt 2nd level, you start with two abilities: Turn Undead and an effect determined by your domain. Some domains grant you additional effects as you advance in levels, as noted in the domain description.
When you use your Channel Divinity, you choose which effect to create. You must then finish a short or long rest to use your Channel Divinity again.
Some Channel Divinity effects require saving throws. When you use such an effect from this class, the DC equals your cleric spell save DC.
Beginning at 6th level, you can use your Channel Divinity twice between rests, and beginning at 18th level, you can use it three times between rests. When you finish a short or long rest, you regain your expended uses.
Turn Undead
As an action, each undead that can see or hear you within 30 feet of you must make a Wisdom saving throw. If the creature fails its saving throw, it is turned for 1 minute or until it takes any damage.
A turned creature must spend its turns trying to move as far away from you as it can, and it can't willingly move to a space within 30 feet of you. It also can't take reactions. For its action, it can use only the Dash action or try to escape from an effect that prevents it from moving. If there's nowhere to move, the creature can use the dodge action.
Harness Divine Power
2nd-level cleric featureYou can expend a use of your Channel Divinity to fuel your spells. As a bonus action, you touch your holy symbol, utter a prayer, and regain one expended spell slot, the level of which can be no higher than half your proficiency bonus (rounded up). The number of times you can use this feature is based on the level you've reached in this class: 2nd level, once; 6th level, twice; and 18th level, thrice. You regain all expended uses when you finish a long rest.
Ability Score Improvement/Feat
4th-level bard featureWhenever you reach a level that gives this feature you can choose between these two options:
Ability Score Improvement. You can increase one ability score of your choice by 2, or you can increase two Ability Scores of your choice by 1. As normal, you can't increase an ability score above 20 using this feature.
Feat. You can take a feat of your choice, as long as you meet it's prerequisites and qualify for it per the DM. You can take each feat only once, unless the feat’s description says otherwise.
Cantrip Versatility
4th-level cleric featureWhenever you reach a level in this class that grants the Ability Score Improvement feature, you can replace one cantrip you learned from this class's Spellcasting feature with another cantrip from the cleric spell list.
Destroy Undead
Starting at 5th level, when an undead of CR 1/2 or lower fails its saving throw against your Turn Undead feature, the creature is instantly destroyed. The CR of undead increases as you gain levels.
| Cleric Level | Destroys undead of CR |
|---|---|
| 5th | 1/2 or lower |
| 8th | 1 or lower |
| 11th | 2 or lower |
| 14th | 3 or lower |
| 17th | 4 or lower |
Blessed Strikes
8th-level cleric feature, which replaces the Divine Strike or Potent Spellcasting featureYou are blessed with divine might in battle. When a creature takes damage from one of your cantrips or weapon attacks, you can also deal 1d8 radiant damage to that creature. Once you deal this damage, you can't use this feature again until the start of your next turn.
Divine Intervention
10th-level cleric featureYou can call on your deity to intervene on your behalf when your need is great.
Imploring your deity's aid requires you to use your action. Describe the assistance you seek, and roll percentile dice. If you roll a number equal to or lower than your cleric level, your deity intervenes. The DM chooses the nature of the intervention; the effect of any cleric spell or cleric domain spell would be appropriate. If your deity intervenes, you can't use this feature again for 7 days. Otherwise, you can use it again after you finish a long rest.
At 20th level, your call for intervention succeeds automatically, no roll required.
subclass options:

The spirits of life promote vitality and health through healing the sick and wounded, caring for those in need, and driving away the forces of death and undeath.Almost any non-evil spirit can be considered part of this domain, particularily Helias (the sun, harvest, growth), Lyra (the sea, life, peace), and Illyo (passion, love, the arts).

Their followers believe that anything important is worth fighting for, and that the only way to prove yourself is through contest.War has many manifestations. It can make heroes of ordinary people. It can be desperate and horrific, with acts of cruelty and cowardice eclipsing instances of excellence and courage. In either case, the spirits of war watch over warriors and reward them for their great deeds. The clerics of such deities excel in battle, inspiring others to fight the good fight or offering acts of violence as prayers.

Cantarans believe that the sea connects us and brings life to this world, and its patron Lyra embodies that. Helias is associated with providing for others and fostering community. The followers of Illyo believe in open expression and creation rather than destruction.Clerics of the Peace Domain preside over the signing of treaties, and they are often asked to arbitrate in disputes.

Grave Domain

To resist death, or to desecrate the dead’s rest, is an abomination. These clerics teach to respect the dead and pay them due homage. Graverights are those who seek to put restless spirits to rest, destroy the undead wherever they find them, and ease the suffering of dying creatures. Their magic also allows them to stave off a creature’s death, though they refuse to use such magic to extend a creature’s lifespan beyond its mortal limits.Grave Domain Spells

Order Domain
The order domain represents discipline, as well as devotion to the laws that govern a society, an institution, or a philosophy. Orin is the patron of order, justice, and trade, whose followers meditate on logic and justice as they serve to achieve balance and peace.Clerics of Order believe that well-crafted laws establish legitimate hierarchies, and those selected by law to lead must be obeyed.

In this manner, law weaves a web of obligations that create order and security in a chaotic world.

Forge Domain
The spirits of the forge are patrons of artisans who work with metal, from a humble blacksmith who keeps a village in horseshoes and plow blades to the mighty dwarven artisan whose diamond-tipped arrows of mithral have felled demons. Brightrock teaches that, with patience and hard work, even the most intractable metal can be transformed from a lump of ore to a beautifully wrought object. Followers of Thal believe that the most divine thing one can do with the life they're given is to make something new.Clerics of these deities search for objects lost to the forces of darkness, liberate mines overrun by monsters, and uncover rare and wondrous materials necessary to create potent magic items. These clerics take great pride in their work, and they are willing to craft and use heavy armor and powerful weapons to protect them.
