Alright so for further reference - if a character wants to wear different colors he has to mention so in his submission?
 
 From what I understood from Weeblie it's disallowed completely - from what I understand from you there is SOME flexibility?

Quote from: Dorganath
Um...Yes.
 
 When your cleric character was approved, you had to agree to a statement about the deity's preferences regarding weapons, clothing and armor. A while back, we instituted a rule for character approval where a cleric would need to give a strong RP reason at the time of character submission to deviate from these strongly recommended preferences. If you did not, then yes...a chain shirt should not even be considered by your cleric character.
 
 
 Well -my cleric- already considered a chain shirt and was approved for one in his submission.
 
 The question was however a general question regarding any cleric.
 So let me understand this - if a character is to weak (low str) he may not wear an armor that suits his strength if he wasnt approved for it?..
 
 If it was Corath I'd understand, but a good like Aeridin? we're putting the clerics life in risk here and I doubt a good god would allow harm to touch his devoted follower - if the cleric can't take the weight of a full plate he can't go for something lighter? sounds a bit silly - and yes, very very very harsh.
 
 Would a good deity like Aeridin or Ilsare smite his follower for being too weak to mount whatever armor they prefer? duh.

The "my character likes this better" excuse is rather thin, but it's generally OK for, say, and Aeridinite druid. A priest or paladin of the same should be more observant of a deity's wishes. For what it's worth, this "because he likes it better" excuse is also used to thinly justify the use of better weapons that reach outside the dogma of their gods. Again, this can be excused in characters who are not clerics, paladins or champions (as applicable), but for clergy and those divinely gifted, it is questionable.
 
 I agree with everything you say but that doesn't answer the question of WHERE does it state that it's AERIDINS (or any other god) wish?
 it's says generally the clerics wear white, sure - what about those that don't? generally doesn't include all.
 
 You gave your personal example and I'll give mine:
 
 My character, a cleric of Aeridin that follows most of the dogma (He has one exception which was approved on his submission). He helps others, he heals injured and aids ANYONE that asks for it (anyone being regardless of alignment or faith, coming from a point of view that anyone deserves a chance and anyone can change).
 He is (or I'd like to think so) humble in his faith, he does not run around preaching it nor does he think the powers granted to him by Aeridin should be used ever so often to impress others (CDT for more), he heals using his own skills mostly and calls upon his god when needed.
 He wears simple clothes and doesn't even wield a weapon, he does carry around his neck a holy symbol (and it states so in his description) and even has a holdable symbol he uses when he fights undead.
 
 As far as he (and I) see it his faith is not measured by the dye of his clothes, he does as his god requires him so but he is quiet and humble about it.
 
 It's not like his clothes are dyed red and black and he carries around a burning sword - heck he simply wears brown which is the color of earth, one of his domains too.
 
 
 I asked what I did because Weeblie said unless I was approved to wear something else in my submission I -have to- wear white, I don't believe it to be so.

Why WOULD your character wear any other color than white?
 
 Same reason I don't in real life, doesn't suit him and he likes other colors better.

A cleric is a cleric. A cleric is pretty much an extention of the god he or she follows. A cleric is wearing the color of the god's choice for recognition and in honor.
 
 Where does it state "Aeridins choice is white"? it says "In general, clerics of Aeridin prefer to wear white robes", that's our choice as clerics.

just the reason of why the cleric is using the favoured weapon/armor of the deity also.
 
 
 So if a cleric is too weak to wear say... a full plate mail - he's not allowed to wear a chain shirt because it's not favored by Aeridin? Nu uh.

Saw what you did in your gallery Shiff - not a bad idea actually, I used to do those for Ultima Online, maybe i'll do some for NWN too...
 
 heres what I did for UO
 
 1) This one describes the shard (server in UO terms) I used to play on
 
 
 2) Life of a bard on Ultima Online
 
 
 3) Life of a fisherman on Ultima Online
 
 
 4) Just some guy and his pet greeting my character
 
 
 5) PvP on Ultima (only people that played Ultima will get this one)
 
 
 6) What rogues and orcs do in their pass time
 
 
 There were more but these were the best... maybe some for Layo if it wont be stealing shiffs copyrights :p
