Soldier's Prayer provides only a modest layer of protection, augmenting the soldier's natural defenses to help defeat the spell and inspiring its casters throughout history to more than one cynical joke about prayer. Despite this, hostile magic can only shorten the spell's duration rather than weaken its steadfast bulwark, and Soldier's Prayer lacks the unfortunate quirks and restrictions that plague more complex barrier spells.

2.0 Notes

  • Duration is 3-20 minutes.
  • Soldier's Prayer loses one minute of duration for every spell it contests.
  • The spell is replaceable.
  • Mana affects both duration and protection.
  • The penalty for non-Paladins casting the spell is a severe reduction in mana contribution to the spell. It is more likely to blow off limbs from non-Holy casters.
  • Terrible soul state no longer prevents a Paladin from casting the spell. However, a Paladin with neutral or worse soul state will be treated as "not a Paladin" and subject to the appropriate penalty.
