With every level, clerics roll a d8 to determine their hit points. At first level, characters are presumed to have rolled an ‘8’ on the die, starting with ‘full’ hit points. Clerics also gain hit points for their body mass, which is rolled by the DM.

Clerics are able to wear any type of armor, including helmets and gauntlets.

Clerics begin with two weapon proficiencies. A new weapon proficiency is gained for every four levels above 1st.

For missile weapons, thrown and hurl ranges are given below, in hexes:
