Other Priestly Resources (CBN)

__TOC__
Although this chapter stands alone as a concise discourse on necromantic priesthoods, there are a number of useful TSR products which serve as sources of further inspiration on this topic. The Complete Priest's Handbook, a definitive work on creating priest characters, contains numerous examples of different pantheons, priesthoods, priest kits, and the role-playing of priest characters. The DM is referred to that resource for guidelines on creating believable and properly motivated priest characters for the campaign.
For more information about specific death gods, Legends and Lore summarizes the deities and religions from eleven historical and fictional pantheons. This fine book includes details about death priesthoods and their granted powers.
For campaign-specific information about death priests, the DM should refer to the FORGOTTEN REALMS® Adventures hardcover for detailed descriptions of various death gods (Cyric, Bhaal, and Myrkul) and their specialty priests. The GREYHAWK® Adventures hardcover also contains a description of the death god Nerull and his priesthood.
