Hoard Domain

Greed is a powerful motivator shared by many species across the planes. Those with the most power, fortune, land, and other resources stand above others and wars are fought to further hoard them. Gods of greed, treasure, and conquest turn these desires into power, allowing their followers to manipulate these desires in others and grow in strength as they increase their hoard.

The Hoard domain prizes the accumulation of wealth, magical items, and power above all else. Followers show their devotion to their deity by offering up valuables or conquering lands. Followers typically worship a dragon deity (e.g., Task, Tiamat, Bahamut), though some gain powers from demon lords or archdevils. Hoard domain clerics prioritize increasing the size of their hoard to increase their connection to their god.
