Defensive spells
oly armour
Skill Used: Faith.Spells.Defensive.Self
Usage: cast holy armour "target"or dispel armour
GP Cost: 75
Description:
This prayer will call upon Severan's aid in the form of a shimmering field of power that will strenghten your armour. The spell may not be cast on others. It is merely a spell that will increase your armor class, thus improving your durability in combat. It will gradually wear off with time (the duration depends on your skill) and you will need to cast it again. This spell has recently taken this form after being nothing but a weak version of the main defensive spell of the paladins, the Shield of Faith (SoF). It now can be stacked with SoF.
hield of faith
Skill Used: Faith.Spells.Defensive.Self or Faith.Spells.Defensive.Target
Usage: cast shield of faith "target" or dispel shield
GP Cost: 350
Minimum level: 75 in Faith.Spells.Defensive
Description:
This is the main defensive spell of the Paladins. It can be cast upon any player with good alignment or even neutral players as long as they are below 25 level. It is very useful for gathering experience with characters that do not have layered defenses and/or get hit a lot so you will be very oftenly asked to assist those players with the blessing of your shield.
The shield works by simply absorbing a considerable amount of damage inflicted upon the recipient. When your fa.s.d.s skills goes high enough, it will reach its maximum absorbing ability which is 75%. You can have an idea of how good your shield is by checking the message it gives when you are hit. The rating of the damage it absorbs will vary from small or good reaching gradually huge and enormous. Enormous is the final and highest rating for your shield's absorbance.
The shield will not wear off with time but with the damage it absorbs. There is a certain total amount of damage it can absorb and when it reaches it, it will leave you defensless. Fortunately, if you are using ansi color for mudding you will be able to get an idea of how close your shield is to wear off by the color of the message it gives when absorbing damage. This will vary from blue (a new shield) to green,yellow and finally red right before wearing off completely. You will be given a message "Your shield of faith is weakening" before it reaches the red level. Your shield will absorb 75% of the damage at all times, however close to leaving you it is.
When fighting good aligned NPCs or players, the absorbing ability of the Shield of Faith is merely 55%. It will protect you by absorbing 75% of the damage inflicted upon you only when you fight evil aligned targets.
rusade
Skill Used:Faith.Spells.Defensive.Self
Usage: cast crusade "target"
GP Cost: 450
Minimum level: 75 in Faith.Spells.Defensive
Description:
This spell calls upon Severan to grant you holy sanction. While under the influence of Crusade you will exude a holy aura for all to see. This aura grants you several benifits including increased durability, strength, enhanced wisdom and a resistance to mundane attacks. The requirements Severan imposes for this blessing are very strict and at no time may you ask for anothers actions to be sanctioned by your god.
This is a very new spell, added at the same time when Constitution and Disarm were removed. The information about it is still not absolutely reliable and the spell may undergo some changes in the future. For now, the stat bonus it offers to a paladin with maximum fa.s.d.s is +2 on strength, +4 on constitution and +1 on wisdom. It is said that it gives some sort of resistance to non-magical attacks. It wears off with time (approximately 5 minutes) and needs to be cast again since all of its effects leave with the wearing off of its golden aura. Its duration depends on your wisdom and fa.s.d.s skill. It cannot be cast upon others.
You need to have a holy symbol in your inventory to be able to cast this spell.
esist death
Skill Used: Faith.Spells.Defensive.Self or Faith.Spells.Defensive.Target
Usage: cast resist death "target"
GP Cost: 300
Minimum level: 150 in Faith.Spells.Defensive
Description:
This spell allows you to call upon the powers of Severan to bestowe the ability to resist death magic upon its recipient. The spell will decrease the efficiency of spells using the "death type" of magic on their targets. One of them is the Occultist spell known as Power Word Die (PWD). By using the resist death spell, you will have less chances of dying instantly because of PWD.
By going on a quest, you can be granted with the power to resist some other types of damage. Those types vary from one guild to another. By completing the 'resist quest' paladins can cast resist against poison and charm. Poison attacks are mainly used by clerics whereas charm attacks usually come from occultists. More about the the resist quest you will be able to find on the "quest page".

Curing spells
end Wounds
Skill Used:Faith.Spells.Curing.Self or Faith.Spells.Curing.Target
Usage: cast mend wounds armour "target"
GP Cost: 60
Minimum level: 40 in Faith.Spells.Curing
Description:
Mend Wounds can be cast on a person or on yourself. It gives you back a number of hit points, the amount of curing is dependent on your skill level. It proves to be useless when you get the heal wounds spell. Even then, the only use of the curing spells in general is to heal NPCs and especially your horse since the lay hands command is more powerful in both healing yourself or other players.
eal wounds

Usage: cast mend wounds armour "target"
GP Cost: 150
Minimum level: 100 in Faith.Spells.Curing
Description:
With this spell, you draw upon the power of Severan to heal your wounds. This spell is much more powerful than its lesser counterpart, Mend Wounds. It is main use is for healing your horse. The lay hands command is always more useful when needed to heal yourself.

Miscellaneous spells
ight
Skill Used:Faith.Spells.Misc
Usage: cast light "target"
GP Cost: 30
Minimum level: 1 in Faith.Spells.Misc
Description:
This spell will create a small globe of light that is placed upon the target to help illuminate dark areas. This spell must be cast on a target of some sort. The spell has a limited duration. Buying a lantern or torch will make this spell obsolete and will get rid of the annoying need to recast it every time it wears off.
etect magic
Skill Used:Faith.Spells.Misc
Usage: cast detect magic "item"
GP Cost: 50
Minimum level: 15 in Faith.Spells.Misc
Description:
This spell will detect if an item has a magical aura around it. It will give a message with a variable rating of how magical an item is. All rainbowed items will apear to be 'highly magical' to this spell whereas you can see other ratings like 'faintly' or 'moderately'. It can come handy when you want to tell the rainbowed items from the rest of them in your armour or the ones who will need disenchanting before being enchanted with rainbow colors again.
summon warhorse
Skill Used:Faith.Spells.Misc
Usage: cast summon warhorse
GP Cost: 300
Minimum level: 30 in Faith.Spells.Misc
Description:
This spell calls on Severan to grant you a warhorse to aid you in battle. The steed that is summoned depends upon your skill level. For the two strongest warhorses, it will cost you 15,000 xp to summon. If you do not have that xp, then it will summon a weaker one instead.
For more information, go to the Paladin Warhorse page
onstitution
Skill Used:Faith.Spells.Misc.Self or Faith.Spells.Misc.Target
Usage: cast constitution "target"
GP Cost: 300+20 for every point added
Minimum level: 80 in Faith.Spells.Misc
Description:
This spell increases the constitution of the target by a variable amount that is dependant on the skill of the paladin. The spell's duration is dependant on the amount of constitution that is affected. This spell wears off gradually with time. You cannot use the Ring of Power while your constitution is modified by this spell. The amount of increase of your constitution spell depends considerably on your wisdom. The wiser you are the more powerful this spell gets. For most maxxed paladins with a decent wisdom, this spell can give up to a +8 bonus. With more wisdom, ebony or other wisdom boosting potions, you can get an even higher constitution bonus.

unishment of Severan
Skill Used:Faith.Spells.Misc.Target
Usage: cast punishment of severan "target"
GP Cost: 750
Minimum level: 100 in Faith.Spells.Misc
Description:
This spell will call upon Severan to punish a disciple of evil by reducing your enemy's stat points. The power of this spell is dependent on your and your foe's alignments. This spell cannot be cast upon neutral or good aligned characters. The more evil the target is, the more good you are, the more powerful the spell becomes.
The curse is able to reduce your target's stats by a maximum -5. It will not kill your opponent but at least it will have him running to find a priest to restore his stats to normal. The reduction of the target's stats makes him more vulnerable to the attacks that may follow, making this spell a very useful asset in player killing situations. Higher wisdom will make the spell more powerful too. It has a high gp cost, being over the 50% of the gps most maxed paladins have. Therefore you will have to use potions in your alias if you want to add attacks after it.
isarm
Skill Used:Faith.Spells.Misc.Target
Usage: cast disarm "target"
GP Cost: 300
Minimum level: 150 in Faith.Spells.Misc
Description:
This spell allows you to call upon the powers of Severan to cause your target to mishandle their weapon, damaging it, and even possibly breaking it. If your target is powerful enough it may be able to resist your faith. This spell has been proven to be virtually useless due to the lack of its effectiveness. I have never seen a paladin break or even do decent damage on a weapon.

ain of Severan
Skill Used:Faith.Spells.Offensive.Target
Usage: cast pain of severan "target"
GP Cost: 75
Minimum level: 40 in Faith.Spells.Offensive
Description:

rath of Severan
Skill Used:Faith.Spells.Offensive.Target
Usage: cast wrath of severan "target"
GP Cost: 250
Minimum level: 150 in Faith.Spells.Offensive
Description:
This spell calls down upon the power of Severan to strike your foe. This is your highest level offensive spell. With an offensive.target skill high enough, this spell can inflict a decent amount of damage to the target and will do that with 4 attacks of different types, most of the time with the fire type of attack. The higher your skill in offensive.target is, the more often you will get the maximum number of attacks with it, the more often you will inflict maximum damage with it.
