Primary Domains
You may only have a single Primary Domain, which will determine the effects of a Cleric's "Turn Undead" feature.
Bear in mind the following:
- Some bonuses require you to have at least a minimum number of Cleric levels to receive.
- Some domains improve the Enhance Ability spell to grant +5 to an ability score, instead of +4; this bonus is only available to "pure" Clerics, who are not multiclassing.
- Domains affect the Summoning theme of Clerics. The order in which you choose your Primary and Secondary domain will determine which domain governs your summoned creatures; the first domain selected always takes precedence. Most of the themes listed on the Summoning page will be available from the beginning, except the Law summoning theme, which requires five levels of Cleric.
- At this time, there are no deities that support the Dwarf, Gnome, Elf, Ooze, or Sun domains.

Racial Powers
Certain racial domains grant a 1/day racial power. This power grants a temporary +1 AB and +1 save bonus versus fear, plus +1 to whatever that race's associated stat is (Str for orcs, Con for dwarves, Dex for elves and halflings, Int for gnomes), and +2 AB versus that race's favored enemy (Elves for orcs, Orcs for dwarves and elves, Goblins for halflings and gnomes) for all friendly members of that race within 30ft, lasting one round/level.
