Playing a cleric of nodens

[Why just why9]

Hi people I was looking at playing a cleric of nodens for my next pathfinder campaign just looking for advice on how to make him feel distinct from a cleric of the old ones and wether there are any rules for this concept somewhere

I don't think there are much by the way of actual rules. I'd probably run Nodens as a less petty version of Umberlee from FR or a darker version of Protius from Mystara.

Protius wrote:

This Immortal represents the sea in all its aspects--treacherous, beautiful, bountiful, and terrifying.

Protius is not a particular admirer of humans or humans-like races. He doesn't dislike them; he just does not care if they care whether they succeed or fail, live or die. Many sailors are devout followers of Protius, tossing coins of copper, silver and gold overboard either in gratitude for a successful voyage or as a wise precaution prior to setting sail. Sometimes Protius heeds these prayers; often he does not.

How did this character become a cleric of Nodens? Who knows. Maybe Nodens took him up on a whim. Maybe Nodens needs a tool in some god-level plot against other gods or Great Old Ones.

. Yeah i was thinking that he was giving my charterer powers to oppose the crawling chaos but maybe not in a conscious way . As domain's what do you think I was think void and madness to reflect that even though he's not evil he is still a mythos being

I'd probably go with the Oceans subdomain of Water for one of the domains, but for the other either of those two would work.

There was a Call of Cthulhu adaptation, Sandy Petersen’s Cthulhu Mythos for Pathfinder, to PF1e that's out there...

Otherwise, in a pinch, the Xoth website has a brief fan-made 3.5 info on Nodens given... along with some other Old Ones. ;)
