Exhort
by Geoff GanderLevel: 1
Range: 10' + 10'/level
Duration: 4 rounds/level
Effect: Inspires everyone within range.
This spell allows the cleric to exhort all listeners within range
to be faithful to their Immortal, and to fight courageously in
battle. Although listeners may resist the effects by successfully
saving vs. Spells, NPCs who are affected have their morale
increased by two points, up to a maximum of 12, for the duration of
the spell. Additionally, all recipients, while under the spell's
effect, are given a +4 bonus to all saving throws against
charm-based attacks. This spell is useful in encouraging peasant
levies, hirelings, and the like to show more courage in battle, and
its ability to confer bonuses against charm-based attacks will have
definite appeal for low-level adventuring parties. If this spell is
already in effect, a second exhort spell will only nullify the
effects of the first one.
