Sacred summons, hellknight signifier & a cleric of a neutral good deity


Rules Questions


Hello all, I hope someone can help me cause I can't find an answer to this question.

If a Cleric of a Neutral Good Deity with the Sacred Summons feat enters the Hellknight Signifier prc, does he summon creatures with the Good Subtype, the Lawful Good Subtype or Both?

Basically do auras from two different sources stack?


Somehow I don't see a cleric of a NG diety becoming a Hellknight.


NG, Hellknight.

You've already goofed.


I said the DEITY is NG. I had not specify the alignment of the cleric which can be LG which statisfy requirements for being 1 step away from the alignment of the deity as well as alignment requirement of the HK signifer.

Okay, so you're a LG follower of a NG deity, and you're a Hellknight Signifier. So you have an Aura of Good (deity) class feature, and an Aura of Law class feature (signifier).

Aura (Ex): A cleric of a chaotic, evil, good, or lawful deity has a particularly powerful aura corresponding to the deity's alignment (see the detect evil spell for details).

Aura of Law (Ex): The power of a Hellknight signifer’s aura of law (see the detect law spell) is equal to his total character level.

Benefit: When using summon monster to summon creatures whose alignment subtype or subtypes exactly match your aura, you may cast the spell as a standard action instead of with a casting time of 1 round.

It's an interesting question. I see no objection to those auras stacking, so you can no longer fast-summon [good] creatures but can now fast-summon [good, lawful] creatures.


Yeah, you probably have a Lawful Good aura now and can fast summon LG outsiders only

Which is actually an improvement, Lantern Archons are pretty cute. Especially the touch attacks that ignore all DR.


A worshipper of a NG deity really shouldn't be a Hellknight.


Eh, they can have Paladins, and those Paladins can take Oath against Chaos.

Makes sense to me.

I agree they shouldn't. But there's no rule against it.
