Editing Cloistered Cleric (section)

===3.5E===
The Cloistered Cleric sacrifices a lot of combat ability for the sake of their casting.

*BAB degrades to a poor progression akin to the Wizard.
*Class Hit Die degrade to d6, more befitting of a primary casting class.
*Lose Medium Armor, Shield and Martial Weapon proficiencies.
*Class skill points is improved to 6 + Intelligence Modifier per level.
*Gain Decipher Script and Speak Language as class skills.
*Gain the [[Bard]]'s Bardic Knowledge ability, letting the cleric add half their level as a bonus to any checks in skills they are untrained in.
*Gain the Knowledge Domain in addition to any domains they'd already have access to, regardless of if the god the cleric worships even has Knowledge as a domain. Not only does this give all Knowledge skills as class skills, but it also provides access to Knowledge domain spells.
**On top of this, the Cloistered Cleric gains some extra spells to their class spell list, though all of them are utility spells.
