Homebrew:Survival Domain
(OOC: This is an implementation of the Survival Domain subclass from Xanathar's Lost Notes to Everything Else)
Base Class: Cleric
Clerics and shamans of primitive tribes living in harsh environments have no greater mission than ensuring the survival of their tribes. The gods of survival often have other domains in similar realms, such as life or nature. The worshippers who work within the Survival domain, however, are much more primal and brutal than their counterparts.

| 1st | create or destroy water, false life |
| 3rd | locate animals or plants, prayer of healing |
| 5th | fear, protection from energy |
| 7th | death ward, dominate beast |
| 9th | antilife shell, greater restoration |
