I am not sure if this is the right place for this thread, but I was wondering if anyone could give a hand with something.
One of my homebrew settings features a True Neutral Goddess of Blood, who has both aspects as a healer and as a warrior due to blood being related to a lot of stuff. Anyway, I wanted to run the game using 3.5e D&D rules, but I realized there's no such thing as a Blood Domain in those. Anyone got any advice on how to create my own domain? Which spells would go with it, and what should the domain ability be?
Thanks in advance.

Granted Power
Free Martial Weapon Proficiency with deity’s favored weapon (if necessary) and Weapon Focus with the deity’s favored weapon.War Domain Spells
Magic Weapon: Weapon gains +1 bonus.
Spiritual Weapon: Magical weapon attacks on its own.
Magic Vestment: Armor or shield gains +1 enhancement per four levels.
Divine Power: You gain attack bonus, +6 to Str, and 1 hp/level.
Flame Strike: Smite foes with divine fire (1d6/level damage).
Blade Barrier: Wall of blades deals 1d6/level damage.
Power Word Blind: Blinds creature with 200 hp or less.
Power Word Stun: Stuns creature with 150 hp or less.
Power Word Kill: Kills creature with 100 hp or less.
Sure looks like it. To me the Blood replacement spells seem like a good choice to me. I wouldn't bother trying to change the granted power though.

Well, as far as the spells go I think the only one that isn't in 3.5 would be blade barrier. As far as the domain power goes, you'd just strip that away since domains didn't offer those powers in that system.
Just an fyi ... Blade Barrier has been around for well forever. Long before and including 3.5E. Long before as in late 70's printings of the original AD&D Players Handbook (and maybe before that but I didn't start playing until fall of 1979 and never owned any of the old boxed sets/chainmail printings.).
