Okay, so as a fan of fantasy, I just have to say that whenever I think of clerics, I think of guys who can summon divine healing and smiting magic.  Generally they also have pretty solid hit points and can hold their own in a fight.

Sadly, I see this term used in real life.  Particularly in Muslim countries/with Muslims.  Where's their holy magic?  Oh, they don't have any?  FUCKING LAME!  >:(

That's why fantasy is so much more interesting than real life.  *Goes off into my own little world, but it's okay; they know me there.*

It's not just Clerics. In fantasy, my Ranger is a badass forest-walking bow-slinging killing machine with a heart dead-set on protecting the innocent. In real life, rangers are... forest cops, basically. With some survival and search training, but still... not exactly the same. :P

Haha, we also have the monk problem.  To be fair, monks are a little cooler, but they don't have shit like "feather fall" and "Ki Strike!"  Real life is just so boring sometimes.  I wonder what the world would be like if these people could actually summon holy magic...

As someone who intersects with New Age circles, this looks a lit more interesting from my point of view.

I know one or two Shamans at the least, and even someone who has a level in Necromancer.

That said, I've stopped trying to anticipate what people around here want a while ago, I've found it makes things smoother.

So I take it "Summon Suicide Bomber" is not a real spell in your view.

A friend of mine managed to summon a Balor once, but he forgot to cast Protection Against Evil first and it killed him. Dumbass.

My only DnD cleric was a sarcastic plate-wearing mace-wielding healing and buff monkey who I made asexual to f*ck with the oversexed dwarven sorcerer...
