GETTING NEW PRIEST SPELLS

created 2/6/99



It costs 2 cp per level of the spell to gain a new priest spell. Roll

prayer with the modifiers specified below. If you fail, you lose 1cp 

(flat, not per level). This will keep you from praying too much just to

hope you roll high one day :). The difficulty is 4/level of the spell 

(rolling prayer). This puts the average level of a priest to about 7 of

d&d (with 5d of prayer, you roll on average an 18, meaning you get 

level 4 spells, sometimes, and maybe a few level 5 spells). This does 

not, of course, mean that you can CAST them, but you can certainly try.



MODIFIERS

Divine favor should be applied to this roll also. HOWEVER, you SHOULD 

know the name of the spell, and have a description, from either a text 

or a cleric of the same faith. If you do not and pray blindly, you get 

a -10 penalty on your prayer roll to attain it. If you pray on 

consecrated ground (to your god) you get a +2 to the roll. If you pray

in a shrine of some sort (with an altar) you get a +4. If you pray in

a temple (depending on the size) the bonus will be anywhere from +6 to

+10.



You cannot pray for spells on the consecrated ground/shrine/temple of

another god.
