What do Heimdal, Renly Baratheon, and Kermit the Frog have in common? They all know the power of rainbows. The mystery and splendor of the rainbow has inspired countless myths across the world. In Norse mythology, the rainbow bridge connects the realm of the gods to the realm of men. In Judeo-Christian tradition, the rainbow is the visual sign of the pact between God and Noah never to flood the earth again. To the Australian aborigines, the rainbow serpent is a primordial creator deity that provides both fertility and disease. With so many divine rainbow connections, it only seems right to have the option for a rainbow domain.
And since rainbows are also natural phenomena, it also makes sense to offer the rainbow domain to druids as part of their
nature bond ability. In fact, I would be lying if I said that my original intent was
not to allow the creation of terrifying rainbow-blasting druids.
