Cleric/Druid?

[Avelent]

Quick question,

Can you multi-class as a cleric druid? The rules seem a bit tricky for me to decipher because it does not say no, but it kinda seems like its a yes?

The rules for druid and cleric multi-classing phrases it as something like (Clerics and Druids of blank may multiclass freely as blank). Seems like clerics and druids are grouped together as single unit almost or an interchangeable class in these cases? This leads me to believe that I can multi-class as a cleric and a druid.

Thanks,

While many Nature Deities support both Druids and Clerics, the distinction between the two classes is usually in where the PC lives and promotes the deity's dogma. Clerics tend to focus on bringing others into their faith in more civilized areas. Cities, towns, villages and hamlets are more likely to have a Cleric of Sylvanus or Chauntea, whereas a tranquil grove deep in the woods would more likely hold Druids of the same faiths. A PC could at times (unless otherwise not allowed by other restrictions here) multi-class as a cleric/druid, but should only do so as an IC reaction to the focus of their belief system. A druid might decide they can better serve the nearby forest by adopting a more urban approach and work with farmers, woodcutters and others to manage their natural resources, while drawing a broader respect in general by performing services in the area generally performed by priests, such as regular services, blessing on crops, workers and homes as well as tending to the ill and elderly. Conversely, a priest may shift approaches and decide they would better serve by moving into a woods and caring for and protecting it in a more personal manner. In either case, the PC should cease taking levels in their first class when they take the second. This all assumes they maintain their service to the same deity.
