[QUOTE="Rystil Arden, post: 2976775, member: 29014"] Would it be more interesting if I added in that 'pure unconditional love bestowed upon the target by a Good being allows the target a new saving throw every month to shake the effect' ? The idea is that it is meant to be able to corrupt and infest a small village's children so that a new branch of evil cultists can rise there many years later :] I mean, if it was a village of Azers, a Fire cleric could just command them all (or water cleric destroy them instantly), and it only works on children, animals, and unborn babes. I wanted to create an ability that was basically useless for the combat cleric but oozing with enough evil flavour that adventurers would hate whoever used it and want to stop them (corrupting unborn babies to make them evil? now that's EVIL). Compared to the Death domain's instant Death attack, this is much less useful in fighting, but more likely to cause adventurers who see its effects to seek out the perpetrator to slay him. [/QUOTE]
