I love this Domain! I was reading through it and it was like I was revisiting something in my past. This domain actually drives you to play a Cleric in the way that they used to be played - for some people anyway. Sacrificing part of your life essence to heal your allies or inflict harm on your enemies, using your willpower or faith to improve the odds, or even to make the ultimate sacrifice.
I haven't played it through yet, but it looks balanced. and it is certainly an inspirational domain. The concepts are thought-provoking, and I think that would give plenty of good role-play opportunites. And once you get past 2nd level, you always have the option of making the ultimate sacrifice - it will be interesting to have that always at the back of your mind. What more heroic death could there be? As long as it does actually finish off the big bad enemy. Be a shame to waste it... heh
It's quite a martial domain too. With domain spells Fireball, Cloudkill and Shatter, amongst others. It just all looks really interesting and very playable. I can't wait to play my next Cleric now.
