Primordial Chaos is the progenitor of the gods of chaos. They have no organized religion of any kind, not even secretive cults. Their worshippers are lone individuals who are often afflicted with some kind of madness.
Clerics of Primordial Chaos are different from other clerics. Their connection to their god is tenuous at best, more of a strange psychic connection to an alien entity. Power is not so much granted, so much as channeled.
Unholy: Creatures of Law
Lay On Hands: Lawful creatures must make a will save (DC 5+HD healed) or take a minor corruption
At the start of each session, Clerics of Primordial Chaos must perform the following:
-
Roll for chaos effects
-
Roll for their spells
When a Cleric of Primordial Chaos casts a wizard spell, and suffers a critical fumble (1), the spell is not lost, but does trigger a misfire and/or corruption. It also still invokes disapproval.
