For the sake of completeness, the Separatist Cleric Archetype allows you to take (almost) any Domain with any Deity. One Domain must be on the Deity's list, the 2nd Domain can be any Domain (unless it has conflicting Alignment), and the 2nd Domain functions at Level/Wis/Cha minus 2.

Re: PF Domain/Deity Match-up Quick Reference

Very nice Grarrrg, this will most definitely help out as the SRD simply links you to the deities individually. This would have been extremely helpful last weak when I was scouring every deity trying to find which ones host the Madness domain.

Are you going to do a Sub-Domain one too, or do Sub-Domains automatically attach onto the deity with the Primary Domain? Like Exploration with Cayden?

I too dislike the current PFSRD setup.
Which is why I compiled this stupid listing in the first place.
And then, since I had done most of the work, I decided I may as well post it, figured others would be annoyed too.

I believe Sub-Domains must be assigned like regular domains.
And I haven't decided if I'm going to do a listing for those yet...
Partially because, due to the nature of Sub-Domains, there are at least twice as many as there are reg-Domains.

Any suggestions on table arrangement? Other Domain-related things it should reference?
I also thought of doing a spreadsheet-like table where you'd be able to tell which domains can be paired up or not, but given how "simple" it is to format tables in the forum... I think I'll pass. It would also be a pain to read, as there are 35 domains (595 yes/no pairings if you're wondering).

Re: PF Domain/Deity Match-up Quick Reference

You could do a Domain with its listed Deity(s). Pretty much the opposite of your first table. Through the table would probably be pretty big considering the Chaos and Evil domains.

Other than that, you have more than made Domains easier to work with.

thanks for this, pfsrd sucks in this respect.
