So I have been running a BG3.5 themed campaign. Itys set after the camp scene from the game. At level 5/6 they arrived at the gate. They are currently investigating a nearby village named Twilights Hollow. For this game and next game I have created these 3 feats, origins and origin feats. Not super happy atm going to tweak them a bit. They are adapted from Lost Empires of Faerun and Power of Faerun from 3.5. trapmaster needs a tweak along with Netherese origin IMHO. Thought on the general idea of these ideas though?
OriginFeats
Heretic of the Faith
Origin Feat.
You can grossly violate your chosen deities strictures, codes, beliefs, and alignment. You are not immune to consequences from that deities faithful, church, servants or the deity itself including the afterlife.
Heretic. You gain heroic inspiration. The inspiration refreshes after a short or long rest. Additionally if you are a cleric you can pick a domain that is not typically associated with your deity. This domain replaces your deities domain. For example a cleric of Eldath could proclai themselves as a defender of her faith and pick the war domain. At the DMs discretion if you are dead you can only return to life within 1d10 days as your soul is judged.
