Religious Traits (Greyhawk)

|
Religion offers power not only to divine spellcasters, but to all the devout. These traits are available to all who worship the listed deities. Some will only work for those who have a specific class ability, such as channel energy.
Characters must have a religion to pick these traits - including belief in philosophies such as deism or synchretism.
Common Religion Traits
All religions award these.
Beacon of Faith
Source Ultimate Campaign
You wield the might of your faith with power and clarity. Once per day as a free action, you may treat your caster level as if it were 2 levels higher when using one of the granted powers of your domain, inquisition, or revelation, or when casting one of your domain or revelation spells.
Birthmark
You were born with a strange birthmark that looks very similar to the holy symbol of the god you chose to worship later in life. This birthmark can serve you as a divine focus for casting spells, and you gain a +2 trait bonus on all saving throws against charm and compulsion effects.
Caretaker
As the child of an herbalist or an assistant in a temple infirmary, you often had to assist in tending to the sick and wounded. You gain a +1 trait bonus on Heal checks, and Heal is always a class skill for you.
Divine Denier
Source Faiths and Philosophies
You can’t bring yourself to accept the authority of the gods, even though friends might hound you relentlessly to change your ways. Perhaps you’re a atheist, or perhaps you just want to be left alone. Your doubt causes you to shrug off divine magic more quickly than others. Once per day when you are affected by a divine spell, you may reduce that spell’s duration to half (minimum 1 round) for you alone.
Ease of Faith
Your mentor, the person who invested your faith in you from an early age, took steps to ensure that you understood that what powers your divine magic is no different than that which powers the magic of other religions. This philosophy makes it easier for you to interact with others who may not share your views. You gain a +1 bonus on Diplomacy checks, and Diplomacy is always a class skill for you.
Faithful Feedback
A shared religious fervor makes your healing magic more effective. Whenever you cast a spell of the healing subtype on someone who shares your religion, you get a +1 trait bonus per die - this can be extra hit points, attribute damage, or other healing measured in points.
First Memories
For your whole life, you’ve felt there was a world just beyond the fabric of the material objects around you, and sometimes you can hear the north wind calling you or smell the dread taint of polluted water before you taste it.
Prerequisite: Gnome
Benefit: You do not gain the normal list of spell-like abilities for the gnome magic racial trait. Instead, if you have a Wisdom of 11 of higher, you gain the following spell-like abilities:
1/day—detect poison, know direction, stabilize, and speak with animals.
The caster level for these effects is equal to your character level. The DC for these spells is equal to 10 + the spell’s level + your Wisdom modifier.
Indomitable Faith
You were born in a region where your faith was not popular, yet you never abandoned it. Your constant struggle to maintain your own faith has bolstered your drive. You gain a +1 trait bonus on Will saves.
Planar Savant
You have always had an innate sense of the workings of the planes and their denizens. You may use your Charisma modifier when making Knowledge (planes) checks instead of your Intelligence modifier.
Sacred Conduit
Your birth was particularly painful and difficult for your mother, who needed potent divine magic to ensure that you survived (your mother may or may not have). In any event, that magic infused you from an early age, and you now channel divine energy with greater ease than most. Whenever you channel energy, you gain a +1 trait bonus to the save DC of your channeled energy.
Zealot
You aren’t just faithful to the worship of your patron deity—you are obsessively loyal to all of the faith’s tenets and guidelines. Your devotion is an anchor that keeps you from drifting away, and you cling to it like the life raft it is.
Prerequisite: You must match the alignment of your chosen deity exactly.
Benefit: You gain a +1 trait bonus on Knowledge (religion) checks, and that skill is a class skill for you. You gain an additional +5 circumstance bonus on Knowledge (religion) checks concerning your own religion. If you are a gnome, as long as you remain completely faithful to the tenets of your faith (as determined by the GM), you never suffer from the Bleaching.
Philosophy Traits
These are not exactly religious, but available to those who adhere to philosophies.
Contract Master
Devil Worship
Your facility with contracts makes you good at understanding dense text and obfuscating your intent. You gain a +1 trait bonus on Linguistics checks, and it becomes a class skill for you.
Crisis of Faith
Source Faiths and Philosophies
You were raised to uphold a specific set of tenets, and you never had reason to doubt their veracity. Recent events, however, have undermined that certainty, and you now find yourself wondering if any of the universal truths you once believed in can actually hold up to scrutiny. Perhaps you witnessed a mentor or church official fall from grace or violate your shared tenets. Maybe you watched a friend injured terribly despite (or because of ) her pure faith. Whatever the case, your shaken confidence grants you a +2 trait bonus on saving throws against illusions. You may replace any other faith trait with the Crisis of Faith trait whenever you gain a level. This replacement is permanent until you receive atonement.
History of Denial
You were raised with heretical views that have made it difficult for you to accept most religious beliefs and often caused you or those you love to be treated as pariahs. As a result, you have turned your back on religious teachings. As long as you do not possess any levels in a class that grants divine spells, you gain a +2 trait bonus on all saving throws made against divine spells. You must attempt to make saving throws against all divine spells that allow a saving throw, even harmless ones. You can learn religious feats and traits normally only available to specific religions, but lose them if you lose the benefits of this trait.
Mole
You are a non-human but curious about humans and have learned to appear as a human to mingle with them. This trait is more common among those who appear least human-like, like lizardfolk and catfolk. You can assume the shape of a human. If you are Small, you learn to assume the shape of a halfling instead. You can use alter race (sp) once per day with a caster level equal to your hit dice and a duration of 24 hours.
Ofudas
You can use text in Celestial to replace material components. This trait is common in oriental lands.
Prerequisite: Able to read and write Celestial.
Benefit: You can use ofudas. These ofudas serve as divine focus items. Each spell with a divine focus component requires a separate ofuda. An ofuda can also substitute for a material component as long as that component is free. Simply writing the kanji (celestial character) for that material component on an ofuda allows you to substitute the ofuda for the actual component.
An ofuda is normally a strip of paper or cloth with calligraphic script on it, but in a pinch any readable script is acceptable, including hastily scratched coal marks on a wall, letters scratched in blood on your own body, or glowing symbols in the air written using prestidigitation. You are normally assumed to have prepared ofudas for all your spells during the spell preparation process (at no cost) - creating one on the fly is a move action requiring Craft (Calligraphy) check with a DC of 10 + spell level.
This is the same as the shugenja class ability of the same name.
Outsider Worship
Your faith grants you favor when interacting with the creatures you worship. Select one type of outsider. You gain a +2 trait bonus on Charisma, Diplomacy, and Intimidate checks when dealing with creatures of this subtype.
Synchretist
Greyhawk syncretism
Your knowledge of the gods has given you a broad perspective. You gain a +1 trait bonus on all Knowledge (religion) skill checks, and Knowledge (religion) is always a class skill for you.
Totemic Reversion
You have ties to an ancestral totem spirit. This trait requires a more extreme change in creatures that are naturally animal-like. You gain a +2 trait bonus on Perception checks, and Perception is always a class skill for you. Select a totem animal. When you are subject to a fear effect (cowering, frightened, panicked, or shaken) and when you roll a natural 1 on a skill check for a Charisma-based skill, you manifest traits of your totem animal. This can be animal ears, snout, whiskers, tail, or something else that is clearly noticeable. These alterations have no effect on your abilities and last only a few minutes, but they are embarrassing and alienating to those who don't know you well. Onlookers change their attitude one step for the worse. Adherents of nature religions and those who are already helpful do not have their attitude changed, and player characters always decide their own attitude.
