Hello, I'm planning on making a sin eater, his/her diety will be Urgathoa, since it fits the concept of eating stuff (diety of gluttony after all), anyways, I have everything planned out, but, I can't seem to pick a domain/inquisition that fits the concept well AND that is mechanically relevant,so, I need your advice on which domain/inquisition to pick for my sin eater.

Yeah, Inqus don't really need a domain to function. They get so many class abilities that it's not even funny anymore. Hah, like all APG classes.
I'm currently playing a Sin Eater in PFS and at low levels the free healing is a godsent. No need to rely on party members or chew through wands when you can just taste the blood of broken foes. Teh 6th level ability is also a nifty trick and I know getting constant free advice from the dead would be a useful feat for many an AP.
Really, if you look at some of the lousy stuff you get from the regular domains and inquisitions, free heals and free speak with the deads are pretty jawsome.

that would be why its a martyr ability, it's not supposed to help you, its to help someone else.
but off the top of my head
Crap, cleric is turned to stone and he has stone to flesh, well now I'm stone and he can cure me
Crap, wizard is int drained into near uselessness, well that doesn't effect me as bad, so now I r dum and he all smartz agains
Crap, fighter is has so many negative levels he looks a little shadowy, well I have Death Ward, so I cast that on me and take those level on myself for a bit to let him resume his ass-kickery
it's the ultimate "take one for the team" ability and fits perfectly into the idea of a character who takes another's sin into themselves to purify that person.
I'm running one in a homebrew game, where Taint (from Heroes of Horror) plays a huge role, so we house-ruled a few changes to fit with the world and I'm loving the concept and the playability of the class. Can't wait until I can take the 11th level ability and help out my party even more.
