Bonus Proficiency
When you choose this domain at the 1st level, you gain proficiency with heavy armor. Also once you choose this domain, you are sworn to the servitude of your deity. As such, you will no longer be able to cast or prepare any spells that do not match your deity. (up to DM ruling for which spells would count) (For example, if your Deity of Radiance is Pelor, you would only have access to casting spells of the Sun, Light, Strength, or Healing spell types)
Disciple of Life and Light
Also starting at 1st level, whenever you use a spell of 1st level or higher to restore hit points to a creature, the creature regains additional hit points equal to 2 + the spell's level.
