Cleric Domain - Heal Ability Damage


Rules Questions


I swear that the other day as I was designing an NPC I found a Cleric Domain that heals ability damage(or so my memory would tell me.) I would be happy with an Oracle as well (or other classes just for my sanity.)

Is there a Cleric Domain or Archtype that has a Heal Ability Damage style ability?


Only thing I could find is the Disease Variant Channeling ability:

"Creatures heal a number of points of ability damage to one ability score (your choice) equal to your channel bonus."

"...[channel] bonus is +1, increasing to +2 at cleric level 5 and for every 5 cleric levels thereafter (to a maximum of +5)."


That's . . . actually pretty decent for a variant channel. Some APs have a lot of ability damage.

That's what it was! I was looking for a "Disease Domain" because of my notes and couldn't find anything today when I went back. Not sure how I ran into that, but thanks!

I must've tried a half dozen different searches of "Cleric disease ability damage heal" and similar and couldn't find even a forum post talking about it.

EDIT: @Blahpers
Indeed, my campaign is going to have a lot disease/poison and figured a friendly NPC who can help take the ill-effects of failed saves off of them would be at least a small kindness I could impart :)

Glad I could help! For future reference, I find the search feature at archives of nethys to be very helpful; I did a Classes/Pets search for "ability damage" and it showed up under Cleric - Variant Channeling.
