Holy Light

Prayer name: Devotion of St Eggort A ray of white light beams from the caster’s raised hand and manifests one of the following effects:

1. Eternal radiance: Casts holy light in a 30′ radius. The light is as bright as full daylight (creatures that suffer penalties in daylight are affected). The prayer may only be cast upon a fixed location within range—the eternal radiance does not move. The duration is permanent.

2. Beacon of sanctity: White light radiates in a 15′ radius around a chosen object. Undead creatures suffer a –2 penalty to Attack Rolls and Saving Throws while within the radius of light. The duration is 6 Turns.

3. Cancelling magical darkness: Devotion of St Eggort may cancel a 30′ radius area of magical darkness.

The miracle of St Eggort the Troglodyte: Taking on unusually severe oaths of solitude and silence, Eggort devoted his life to prayer in the crypt of the monastery where he dwelt. Spending his days alone in the darkness, Eggort’s devotion manifested, over many years as a flickering glow upon the altar. This light grew and grew until, at the time of Eggort’s death, the crypt was lit as bright as day, as if by the light of a thousand votive candles. The crypt exists to this day as a site of pilgrimage.
