Greetings! Just a quick couple of clacks on the topic . . . the kind of person a character is *after* they are illuminated depends on the type of person they were *prior to* illumination. In all cases, the individual undergoes a radical personal experience, but it is not clear that this means drastic changes in personal habits and observances. (They *might*, but it is not clear they would *have* to.) Why would a C.A. healer have to significantly modify his or her behavior? Also, the idea of being cut off from the gods is overstated. A better analogy might be that parts of the illuminate's soul are now invisible to the gods like Dialecti's Upland Swamp is invisible to dragonkind. If the person observes holy days and continues to worship, there is no reason he or she should not be able to renew divine spells. I grant that this might be a rarity, but let's not dismiss the possibility. In service, Rich Staats ------------------------------
