'''Table-Turner.''' At 1st level, you can cause an attacker’s own body to turn against itself.

On a failed save, the creature takes 1d12 poison damage and is poisoned until the end of its next turn. On a successful one, it takes half as much poison damage and isn’t poisoned.

=== Domain of the Forge ===

The Clerics 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 elf artisan whose diamond-tipped arrows of mithral have felled demon lords. The gods of the forge teach that, with patience and hard work, even the most intractable metal can be transformed from a lump of ore to a beautifully wrought object. Clerics of these deities search for objects lost to the forces of darkness, liberate mines overrun by orcs, and uncover rare and wondrous materials necessary to create potent magic items. Followers of these gods take great pride in their work, and they are willing to craft and use heavy armor and powerful weapons to protect them.

'''Bonus Proficiencies.''' When you choose this domain at 1st level, you gain proficiency with heavy armor and smith’s tools.

=== Domain of the Grave ===

Clerics of the grave watch over the line between life and death. To these clerics, death and the afterlife are a foundational part of the world. To desecrate the peace of the dead is an abomination. Clerics of the grave seek to put wandering spirits to rest, destroy the undead, and ease the suffering of the dying. Their magic also allows them to stave off death for a time, particularly for a person who still has some great work to accomplish in the world. This is a delay of death, not a denial of it, for death will eventually get its due.

'''Circle of Mortality.''' At 1st level, you gain the ability to manipulate the line between life and death. When you would normally roll one or more dice to restore hit points with a spell to a creature at 0 hit points, you instead use the highest number possible for each die.

=== Domain of the Learned ===

Some teach that knowledge is to be gathered and shared in libraries and universities, or promote the practical knowledge of craft and invention. Some clerics hoard knowledge and keep its secrets to themselves. And some promise their followers that they will gain tremendous power if they unlock the secrets of the world. Followers of this domain study esoteric lore, collect old tomes, delve into the secret places of the earth, and learn all they can.

You spend at least 1 minute in meditation and prayer, then receive dreamlike, shadowy glimpses of recent events. You can meditate in this way for a number of minutes equal to your Wisdom score and must maintain concentration during that time, as if you were casting a spell. You can use this feature a number of times equal to your proficiency bonus, regaining expended uses at the end of a long rest.

=== Domain of the Light ===

Clerics of light promote the ideals of rebirth and renewal, truth, vigilance, and beauty, often using the symbol of the sun. Clerics of light are enlightened souls infused with radiance and the power of the Bahumat’s discerning vision, charged with chasing away lies and burning away darkness.

'''Bonus Proficiency.''' When you choose this domain at 1st level, you gain proficiency with heavy armor.

=== Domain of the Natural ===

Clerics of nature are as varied as the natural world itself, from inscrutable deep forests to friendly Clerics associated with particular springs and groves. Druids revere nature as a whole and might serve one of these deities, practicing mysterious rites and reciting all-but-forgotten prayers in their own secret tongue. These clerics might hunt the evil monstrosities that despoil the woodlands, bless the harvest of the faithful, or wither the crops of those who anger Bahumat.

'''Acolyte of Nature.''' At 1st level, you learn one druid cantrip of your choice. This cantrip counts as a cleric cantrip for you, but it doesn’t count against the number of cleric cantrips you know. You also gain proficiency in one of the following skills of your choice: Animal Handling, Nature, or Survival.

The Order Domain represents discipline, as well as devotion to the laws that govern a society, an institution, or a philosophy. Clerics of Order meditate on logic and justice as they serve the Three

Clerics of Order believe that well-crafted laws establish legitimate hierarchies, and those selected by law to lead must be obeyed. Those who obey must do so to the best of their ability, and if those who lead fail to protect the law, they must be replaced. In this manner, law weaves a web of obligations that create order and security in a chaotic multiverse.

'''Bonus Proficiencies.''' At 1st level, you gain proficiency with heavy armor. You also gain proficiency in the Intimidation or Persuasion skill (your choice).

The balm of peace thrives at the heart of healthy communities, between friendly nations, and in the souls of the kindhearted. The Clerics of peace inspire people of all sorts to resolve conflict and to stand up against those forces that try to prevent peace from flourishing.

Clerics of the Peace Domain preside over the signing of treaties, and they are often asked to arbitrate in disputes. These clerics’ blessings draw people together and help them shoulder one another’s burdens, and the clerics’ magic aids those who are driven to fight for the way of peace.

Guides aiding travelers in unfamiliar territory, guardians protecting the open road—clerics of the travel domain often perform in roles such as these. Helping others get from one place to another, these clerics frequently find themselves on the path of adventure. Though they often act as nomads, they never feel as if they don’t have a home; indeed, not all who wander are lost.

'''Traveler’s Step.''' At 1st level, your walking speed increases by 5 feet. If you have a climbing or swimming speed, this increase applies to that speed as well.

=== Domain of the Trickster ===

Clerics of Trickery are mischief-makers and instigators who stand as a constant challenge to the accepted order. They’re thieves, scoundrels, gamblers, rebels, and liberators. These clerics are a disruptive force in the world, puncturing pride, mocking tyrants, stealing from the rich, freeing captives, and flouting hollow traditions. They prefer subterfuge, pranks, deception, and theft rather than direct confrontation.

'''Blessing of the Trickster.''' Starting when you choose this domain at 1st level, you can use your action to touch a willing creature other than yourself to give it advantage on Dexterity (Stealth) checks. This blessing lasts for 1 hour or until you use this feature again.

=== Domain of the Twilit ===

The twilit transition from light into darkness often brings calm and even joy, as the day’s labors end and the hours of rest begin. The darkness can also bring terrors, but the Clerics of twilight guard against the horrors of the night. Clerics of Twilight bring comfort to those who seek rest and protect them by venturing into the encroaching darkness to ensure that the dark is a comfort, not a terror.

'''Bonus Proficiencies.''' At 1st level, you gain proficiency with martial weapons and heavy armor.
