mau I ask you something about deities and Domains in the Realms?
The Sage Advice says a player can choose any Domain to his character, even The PHB recommending many times to choose a Domain in the suggested domains list of the deity. What do YOU think about this? YOUR Realms has a strong connection between domains and gods? Or do you think is ok to a Tyr cleric to choose The Trickery Domain, or a Eldath cleric to choose The War Domain?

Well, I think MOST clerics of Tyr shouldn't choose the Trickery Domain, or clergy of Eldath the War Domain. It doesn't fit, and smacks of min-maxing at the expense of belittling faith and the setting.
BUT…Player Characters are supposed to be the rare mavericks, so..#Realmslore— Ed Greenwood (@TheEdVerse) December 22, 2020
