Hello,

This might be a silly question but which domains could a priest of Tiamat have?

There are not the same in the Draconomicon or in the FR book about gods.
So i would like to know if maybe one of this book is 3.0 and the other one 3.5 si it could explain why.

Does someone has an answer for this?

Also, you should note that some of the domains that are listed in Table 1-2 have been updated in the Player's Guide to Faerūn.


-Agreed. I'd go with the later source, as it would include more Domains. The Domains Tiamat has wouldn't particularly alter anything else about her, and is more a D&D mechanics thing than anything else (for the most part, since there aren't any major, major differences in portfolios and dogma between 'Core' Tiamat and 'Forgotten Realms' Tiamat). With that in mind, more options makes things more interesting.

It depends on whatever the DM says is logical in my opinion. If you want to follow the deities having a certain number of specific domains only then i'd go with the Forgotten Realms source because Tiamat is slightly different in different worlds.

If I were playing in the FR, I would us the FR source. If a Core game, Draconomicon. At my table, I would allow a player their choice of any combination of domains from both sources, offered by Tiamat
