Sand Domain
This is a Domain not accessible in Faerûn or a specialty domain accessible only by prestige class.
Granted Powers: Once per day, you can shape a small amount of sand into any solid object you can imagine, up to 8 cubic feet in volume. You can shape one object or several, up to a number equal to your Wisdom bonus, as long as the total volume does not exceed 8 cubic feet.
You must make a special Wisdom check (d20 + your Wis modifier + 1/2 your cleric level) against a DC determined by the size and complexity of the item. The item to be created has a base DC of 5, plus the modifiers on the table below.
Item Complexity | Modifier |
Fine details | +2 |
Functioning tool | +2 |
Functioning armor/weapon | +5 |
Multiple parts | +5 |
Masterwork version | +10 |
Moving parts | +10 |
Each attempt to create an item requires a number of minutes equal to its DC. You can take 10 or take 20 on this check. Created items persist for 1 minute per cleric level, and can only be solid objects. The objects created have no magical properties, though they radiate faint transmutation magic.
All items created in this fashion have hardness 5 and hit points as follows Fine 1, Diminutive 2, Tiny 3, Small 5, Medium 8, large 10.
1 - Waste Strider
2 - Black Sand
3 - Haboob
4 - Blast of Sand
5 - Flaywind Burst
6 - Awaken Sand
7 - Vitrify
8 - Desert Binding
Aligned Spells In Non-aligned Domains
Some domains listed include spells with an alignment descriptor, meaning that a character with the domain may be unable to cast one or more of his domain spells. Spellcasters who are restricted from casting spells of certain alignments must abide by those restrictions even if the spell is a domain spell. For instance, a chaotic cleric who chooses the Inquisition domain cannot cast any of the domain spells with the Law descriptor, such as detect chaos.
