Warpriests Blessings based on Alignment


Rules Questions


Hello good people of the Rules Questions Boards,

I have a question that was sparked by a PC character sheet. I have a player who's doing a Warpiest (Advanced Class Guide) of "Nethys". For his blesisngs the player choose "Destruction" and "Law". I didn't see "Nethys" listed under the "Law" Blessing listing in the Advanced Class Book. I didn't think that would work but this one entry within the Advanced Class Book made me wonder.

Blessings (Su): A warpriest's deity influences his alignment, what magic he can perform, his values, and how others see him. Each warpriest can select two blessings from among those granted by his deity (each deity grants the blessings tied to its domains). A warpriest can select an alignment blessing (Chaos, Evil, Good, or Law) only if his alignment matches that domain. If a warpriest isn't devoted to a particular deity, he still selects two blessings to represent his spiritual inclinations and abilities, subject to GM approval. The restriction on alignment domains still applies.

So, does that mean a Warpriest can choose an alignment blessing that doesn't match their god or am I reading too much into that one sentence?

Thanks for any help guys!


No, that does not mean he can choose Law.
His god does not grant it, he can not take it.

Sweet, that's what I thought but wanted to give the player the benefit of the doubt before saying he needed to change it.

Thanks for the quick reply!


Hey, no problem.

If you need "evidence", it's right before the first sentence you bolded.
