GreyhawkOnline is pleased to bring you another cleric subclass for clerics, in a series by the prolific and popular William Dvorak of Wicked Studios!

Watch out for the next cleric subclass ... followers of the Mistress of Fate! The Clerics of Istus! Art by Natalya Saloshmat. CLICK NOW to download the Clreic of Istus subclass! Istus is the Baklunish goddess of Fate, Destiny, Divination, and the Future. Her symbol is a golden spindle with three strands. Istus is aloof and considers both mortals and other immortals beyond her concern. The fate of the universe is the only thing that draws her attention. Istus is represented by three aspects, the young, the mature, and the old, and can appear as one of them at will. Regardless of her appearance, she always carries a golden spindle with her. She uses her spindle to spin the future into the present, thus weaving the web of fate. In the doctrine of Istus, the threads of fate are woven throughout the multiverse. Your fate might be predestined, but you can alter the weave enough to alter your path slightly, thus altering your destiny. Because of this, even those who can see the threads of fate through can never see it with one hundred percent accuracy. Despite this, clerics of Istus teach that one should embrace your destiny as it has already been determined by Istus and laid ... read more!

He is known as the Uncaring, the Lord of All Magics, and the Archmage of the Deities. His symbol is an eye in a pentagram, usually worn as an amulet. Boccob teaches that magic is the most important force in the cosmos, and critical for the balance between Law and Chaos and Good and Evil. Boccob promotes the research and creation of new spells and magical items to increase the amount of magic available to everyone. Boccob seems not to care whether he is worshiped or not. Nonetheless, he receives devotion from oracles, sages, and seers, not to mention wizards and sorcerers. He is known to every culture, even if he is known by a different name. Boccob's clerics are usually neutral, though a small minority are chaotic neutral. The church does not actively encourage others to study magic, nor does it discourage them; its primary concern is balance. CLICK NOW to ... read more!

Clerics of Incabulos

2022-11-28T11:27:49-05:00November 21st, 2022|

Another subclass in a series by a fan-favorite creator, William Dvorak of Wicked Studios! This incredibly popular series has seen subclasses for many popular classes, like paladins, rangers, and even warlock patrons for hero-deities and demigods!  Recently, William did a poll to decide on the next class, and it's CLERICS! Without further ado, here's the next installment of his series! The Clerics of Incabulos! Art by Ethan Zu. CLICK NOW to download the Clreic of Incabulos subclass! Incabulos, the god of Plagues, Sickness, Famine, Nightmares, and Disasters. Not all clerics who serve the Black Rider take pleasure in spreading pain, suffering, and death but realize it must be done to feed their master's hunger and to keep life in check. The acts of the clerics of Incabulos often seem random and without meaning to most, but his clerics firmly believe in the dark orders whispered to them by their master. With a deformed body, skeletal hands, and a nightmarish face, Incabulous is terrifying to behold, even in images. His clerics look to duplicate the fear instilled by the Black Rider by imitating his appearance. They achieve this by wearing vile-looking costumes in the shapes of deformed and rotting creatures or by actually disfiguring themselves through rituals. They will hide their hideous armor and appearance when necessary by wrapping themselves in filthy black robes trimmed in sickly green.  While Incabulos is not venerated by many, most common folk throughout the Flanaess give him offerings, usually by burning foul-smelling, black candles made from the tallow of sickly animals, to appease him.  Clerics of Incabulos are persecuted in most lands, and ... read more!

Clerics of Greyhawk: Clerics of Beory

2022-11-28T11:29:27-05:00November 16th, 2022|

Greyhawk Online is pleased to present a new subclass for D&D 5e by a fan-favorite creator, William Dvorak.  William has been doing subclasses at his home blog, Greyhawk Companion, for years now and they've been tremendously popular!  Some of his subclasses have been warlock patrons for Heroi-deities and demigods, paladin subclasses, and rangers! Here's the next installment of his series! The Clerics of Beory! Art by Zoltan Boros CLICK NOW to download the Cleric of Beory subclass! Beory is the Flan mother of Oerth. She is a distant goddess with little concern for the individual and instead focuses on the world's health. She does not associate with other deities, even those with similar interests, as her sole concern is with the planet. Her name is well known throughout the Flanaess and considered a Flan deity primarily, but she is worshiped across Oerth by many names. Clerics of Beory can be mistaken for druids and are often found in their company. The main difference between the two is that the priests of Beory wish to teach others to love and understand nature by venerating Beory. Priests do not mind if followers worship other deities as long as they honor and adhere to Beory's doctrine. Priests are never hostile in their pursuit of teaching others the way and realize that not all can be reached. The clergy of Beory is loosely organized and differs to and respects the station of elder priests. When pressing matters of great importance occur, priests gather to try and find a solution to the problem. Problems of great importance would never be a war, ... read more!

The harsh land between the Icy Sea and the Griff Mountains is a cold and lonely place inhabited by those who sought isolation or fled there to escape war. A few hardy local flan tribes lived in the region under the loose domain of the ancient Kingdom of Tostenhca and later the Colten Feodality. As the Suel and Oeridians moved east, outcasts from those societies made their way into these lands, transforming the Fist's descendants into a motley band. Those who live there now are hard people steeped in a warrior custom of might makes right. Even the farmers and peasants of the region are a stout bunch eeking out a living from poor soil during a short growing season. To compensate for the lack of resources and in line with their warrior customs, the people of Stonefist have become feared raiders. The Suel barbarian tribes to the northeast even respect the skill of these fierce warriors. Chief among these raiders are those known as reavers. The Reavers of Stonefist are renowned slavers who take pride in capturing not just women and children but also the most competent warriors ... read more!

Rangers of Greyhawk: Wolf Nomads, Wolf Sentinels

2022-03-11T10:04:43-05:00December 31st, 2021|

Art by Matt Forsyth ​As the Wolf Nomads or Wegwiur as they call themselves settled down into their new homeland in the northern Flanaess, the elite outriders of the Relentless Horde found themselves without purpose. Under the guidance of the late Kha-Khan, they scouted ahead for plunder and grazing lands. Still, they now found themselves simply wandering their new homeland without purpose. They found occasional purpose in killing the rare monster or leading raids against their former allies, the Tiger Nomads, or into Perrenland. Still, those callings were few, so their numbers dwindled. They might have even faded into legends had it not been for the rise of Iuz, and the threat of a new foe to fight. With the coming of Iuz, these once outriders evolved into the Wolf Sentinels, ranging the lands between their's and that of the forces of the Great Old One. They took prominent roles in the battles that soon followed Iuz's return and leaders in the continuous skirmishes and raids along their borders with Iuz's empire. Within the rigid structure of Wolf Nomad society, Wolf Sentinels answer only to their tribal tarkhan. When donning the ceremonial red wolves head of their station, they sever all ties to their families and clans to remain uninfluenced by clan rivalries. Wolf Sentinels take no wives and have no children so long as they remain a Wolf Sentinel. They may retire from their station if they wish and live a family life, but this usually only happens if the Sentinel has lingering injuries that keep them from performing the tasks of a Wolf Sentinel. Even when they set aside the ... read more!
