So people who decide to go Cleric, which god will you choose on full release?

[Nihrahk]

While I won't be going Cleric the first time, when I do I'm definitely going Bhaal. It could lead to some interesting conversations, and if I'm also Dark Urge it will be even better. I mean, a Bhaal Cleric would pretty much call those murder urges a blessing from the god of murder himself.

Clerics don't choose gods, they choose domains.

Clearly you haven't tried Cleric. When you create a Cleric, you get to choose a domain and a god.

Selune 100% and its going to be a light cleric.

There is 1 very good reason for it ... Shadowheart. <3
She is a cleric of Shar and I am a cleric of Selune ... this seems to be the perfect combination for a good romance side-story for my Tavs Adventure. ^.^

My man said I don't like ham, I like Canadian bacon.

Mystra. Gotta get to her before Gale so he can be extra salty.

I'm torn for my Dark Urge character. I want to do a Drow with Lolth diety, but a Dwarf and Bhaal/Bane or Kelemvor sounds like fun as well to roleplay as.

Kelemvor, necro cleric

Sorry, real clerics choose a domain, not a god. Choosing a god has the downside of being without a job when the god dies or changes profile. But choosing a domain means you can be a Cleric of Death regardless of whether it's Jergal, Mirkul, or Kelemvor. Why settle for Bhaal when you can worship the Lord of Murder? Future-proof your cleric, be freelance.

I'm planning Drow so Lolth

When I do my cleric run, it will be Nature Cleric of Gond

Half-Orc Cleric - War Domain God = Tempus. Not sure if it will be my first run though.

Can you choose a domain and no god?

Clerics get their powers from the god they worship, not the domain. Gods get power from people who worship them, not people who worship their domain. No god would give power to someone who worships their domain and not them. Also, you have to choose both domain and god in BG3 when making a cleric. Maybe a DM let you get away with it but it doesn't make sense lore wise.

Dark Urge, War Domain Cleric of Bhaal. Won't happen until 3rd playthrough at the soonest though. I also hope it brings some unique options with a certain villain that was revealed.
