Deity, Variant (5e Class)

Deity

The Benefits of Godhood

Having ascended to a higher state of existence than mere mortals at some point or another, you now have supernatural strength, speed, intelligence, and perhaps great wisdom to share with those you deem worthy. And not only that, your powers have only just begun to grow. You can ascend the Divine Ranks further to gain even greater power, which you could share with others, or keep to yourself, if you so desired. There are a plethora of abilities, perhaps an endless amount, at your disposal, but how you use them is entirely up to you, and others will most certainly desire this power as well.

Creating a Deity

You should consider the following questions when making your character. How did they attain their godhood, and how did they react when it happened? Did they slowly obtain their powers through a difficult journey, or were they gifted their godhood by another deity? And how have they been affected by their newfound powers, and if so, in what ways? Also, how do they use their powers? Do they share it with mortals, or do they discriminate between certain individuals? Or do they hoard it all to themselves, holding onto the power they worked so hard to obtain? Furthermore, consider how they treat their followers, should they amass a large enough following (or cult).

Divine Rank

Upon reaching the status of a god and transcending your mortality, you've put yourself in a rather perplexing position. You can stay where you are, a mere Quasi-Deities, or you can gather enough like minded individuals who believe in your powers to start climbing the ranks of divinity. When creating a Deity, you begin with a Divine Rank of 1. Reaching higher Divine Ranks requires incredible effort and many followers, but provides strong benefits that will aid you in your quest, whatever it may be. Your divine rank influences your level, the more gods believe they are equal to you or below you or the more followers you have the more rank you will have and the more it will raise your level.

Your strength as a deity is determined by your Divine Rank, which can be increased by amassing followers or claiming divinity from other gods or being recognized by other gods. You will always begin with a Divine Rank of 1, but from that point forward it is your choice on whether or not you increase it. Should you gain enough followers for your Divine Rank to match your Deity level ,rising your Deity level.

Divine Rank 1-5

Creatures of this rank are sometimes called quasi-deities or hero deities. Creatures that have a mortal and a deity as parents also fall into this category. These entities cannot grant spells, but are immortal and usually have one or more ability scores that are far above the norm for their species. They may have some worshipers. Ordinary mortals do not have a divine rank of 0. They lack a divine rank altogether. You do not age and cannot be aged magically.

Divine Rank 6-10

Called lesser deities, these entities grant spells and can perform more powerful deeds than demigods can. Lesser deities have anywhere from a few thousand to tens of thousands of worshipers and control larger godly realms than demigods. They also have keener senses where their portfolios are concerned. You can bestow three cantrips, and two first level spells a day to your followers.

Divine Rank 11-15

These entities are called intermediate deities. They have hundreds of thousands of mortal worshipers and control larger godly realms than demigods or lesser deities. You can bestow four cantrips, and two first level and two 2nd level spells a day. You may also have a few lesser gods you control.

Divine Rank 16-20

Called greater deities, these entities may have millions of mortal worshipers, and they command respect even among other deities. The most powerful of greater deities rule over other deities just as mortal sovereigns rule over commoners. You can bestow four cantrips, and two first level, two 2nd level, and one 3rd level spell(s) a day.

Divine Rank 20+

Your followers spellist and spellcasting becomes the same as a regular cleric character.

Spellcasting

Overflowing with not only divine but arcane power as well, you can cast Cleric and Wizard spells. The combination of your spell lists will be known as your Deity spell list. See Chapter 10 for the general rules of spellcasting and Chapter 11 for spell lists.

Cantrips

At 1st level, you know 2 Cantrips from your Deity spell list. You learn additional Cantrips of your choice at higher levels as shown in the Cantrips known column of the Deity table.

Preparing and Casting Spells

The Deity table shows how many spell slots you have to cast your spells of 1st level and higher. To cast one of these spells, you must expend a slot of the spell's level or higher. You regain all expended uses after a long rest. You can prepare a number of spells equal to your proficiency bonus + your wisdom modifier. To prepare spells you have to pray for 1 hour.

Spellcasting Ability

Wisdom is your spellcasting ability for your Deity spells. The source of your power is none other than the strength of your very being, and when tempered over time it can be a devastating force. You use Wisdom whenever a Deity spell refers to your spellcasting ability. In addition, you use your Wisdom modifier when setting the saving throw DC for a Deity spell you cast and when making an attack roll with one.

Spell attack modifier = your proficiency bonus + your Charisma modifier

Innate Spellcasting

You can summon your own incredible power to bolster an attack with sacred might. Whenever you or a creature within 30 feet of you makes any type attack, you can cause it to do an additional 1d6 damage of the damage type associated with your Portfolio. This damage is increased to 2d6 at 5th level, 3d6 at 9th level, 4d6 at 13th level, and 5d6 at 17th level. Alternatively, rather than dealing damage, you can restore hit points to an ally using the same damage dice.

You can use this feature a number of times equal to your Charisma modifier.

Portfolio

Upon becoming a Deity, you must decide what your Portfolio is. Choose between War, Nature, Death, Knowledge, Light, Arcane, or Life, all detailed near the end of the class description. You can expand upon your Portfolio and what exactly you control, but this determines the general context of what it is. Your choice grants you features at 1st level, and again at 3rd, 7th, 10th, 15th, and 18th level.

Grasp of Salvation

With you by their side, the thought of defeat doesn't even cross your allies' minds. Beginning at 9th level, whenever you or an ally within 30ft is attacked by any sort of attack, you can use your reaction to reduce the damage by an amount equal to your Deity level plus your Charisma modifier and Divine Rank.

Additionally, you can grant allies a bonus to attack and damage rolls equal to your Wisdom modifier until the beginning of their next turn. You can do this feature twice, and you regain expended uses after a long rest.

True Divinity

Having obtained limitless power, nothing is beyond your control now. Once you reach 20th level, you can create or destroy life on a whim. If the creature you are targeting is not a deity, you can remove it from existence, regardless of any resistances or immunities it may have. This disregards anything that may prevent it from dying or protect it from such an act, unless it was made specifically to protect it from the wrath of a god. Conversely, you are capable of granting life as well. You can create a creature whose size is no larger than Large within 60ft of you. You can decide its race, alignment, etc., and whether it is a loyal subject of yours, or is free to do as it pleases. It does not gain any equipment or spells unless you bestow them to it upon creation. Additionally, creatures you create will spread your gospel, speaking of your magnificence, even if they are not loyal subjects. However, they do not count as worshippers towards increasing your Divine Rank. You can only do this a number of times equal to your Divine Rank, and regain expended uses after one week. Furthermore, when you make an attack or cast a spell, you can choose to cause it to affect all creatures within 60ft of the creature, and if you attack using a Divine Charge, the damage is maximized, creatures within 60ft of the target receive half of the damage, and all allies within 60ft of you are healed for half of the damage dealt. Finally, if you are reduced below half of your hit point maximum, you explode with divine energy, dealing 8d10 damage associated with your Portfolio to all hostile creatures within 60ft of you. This cannot occur more than once in the same round. You can also use your creation to create anything but to create magical items it takes 10 hours.
