Our group plays a 1e/2e hybrid. The whole group has become enamoured with the concept of specialty priests. The rules were put forth in 3 Forgotten Realms suplements. It never made sense to us that every cleric of every god had the same abilities. So, I have had played a cleric of Gilean since 1986. We are trying to come up with specialty priest rules for him without drastically altering his abilities. I recently picked up the 1e Dragonlance adventures and went over its rules for clerics. I was interested in some further info on Gilean, so I could decide his spheres of influence. Well, I have never in my playing career seen a class nerfed so badly as the Krynn clerics got nerfed. Okay, lets see, we are going to drastically reduce your access to spells AND place level restrictions on you and in return we are going to give you NOTHING. Krynn clerics give Dark Sun clerics a run for their money as the weakest character class ever created, while those Knights of the Sword and Rose are some of the most overpowered character classes I have ever seen. To top it all off there was very little info on the Krynn Gods in this book. Can somebody help me out?
