Beast Domain

Gods of the beasts are few and far between. In Canyonne, the premier deity of the beasts is Arreschoug, but other gods include Malar, Talona, Sobek, and Uller. Typically, these gods promote savagery and the wilderness. For some deities, intelligence and knowledge is unholy, as they lead to disloyalty and deviation from the norm. Thus, these gods support not only literal beasts, but all brutish beings. Those who worship these gods tend to be bandits, hunters, savages, and outlaws. Beast domain gods send their clerics to quash innovation and halt technical progression.

This effect ends if the creature ends its turn out of line of sight or more than 60 feet away from you. You can use this feature only once per a long rest.
