Domain of Ilmater

The clerics of Ilmater serve The Broken God by reducing the sufferings of the oppressed, weak and defenseless. They have sworn to take the pains of others upon themselves. Their prayers often involve what others would see as self mutilation and punishment as they learn to accept pain in order to better shoulder the burdens of those they are led to aid. 

Domain Spells

You gain domain spells at the cleric levels listed in the Domain of Ilmater Spells table. See the Divine Domain class feature for how domain spells work.

Prayers of Suffering

At the start of a long rest, a cleric of Ilmater may conduct a ceremony of self-sacrifice. They flog themselves with the whip of their order, taking 1D6 damage for every hour spent conducting this ceremony. At the end of this rest, the cleric gains temporary hit points equal to the amount of damage taken multiplied by their proficiency bonus. The damage taken increases to 2d6 at level 6th level, 3d6 at 10th level, 4d6 at 15th level and 5d6 at 20th level.

Channel Divinity: Transference of Pain

Starting at 2nd level, the cleric of Ilmater can use Channel Divinity to accept the sufferings of others onto themselves.

When an ally within 30 feet of the cleric takes damage from an attack, the cleric can use Channel Divinity to reduce the damage taken by that target by 5 + three times their cleric level. The difference between the original damage and the reduced number is then taken by the cleric of Ilmater as necrotic damage. 

Clemency of Ilmater

Starting at 6th level, the cleric's connection to Ilmater deepens and as does their ability to accept pain from others. For all spells which require the acceptance of damage to reduce damage to others the damage taken is now further halved.

Rage of Ilmater

At 8th level, the cleric gains the rage of Ilmater. Once per round, as a reaction the cleric can cause an enemy attacking themselves or an ally within 30 feet to take 1d8 necrotic damage. This damage increases to 2d8 when the cleric reaches 14th level.

Shroud of Suffering

At 17th level, the cleric becomes the sanctified champion of Ilmater. The cleric gains an AC equal to 10 + their wisdom modifier + their proficiency bonus. Furthermore, whenever the cleric of Ilmater uses an ability to accept damage to reduce the damage of another, they gain bonus AC equal to their proficiency bonus until the end of their next turn.
