Does unholy damage affect evil creatures?
I can't find where the description of holy or unholy damage is given, but in the BoVD, under "corrupt spell" it says
Under "corrupt spell-like ability," however, the BoVD says
So does unholy damage affect evil creatures (as corrupt spell suggests), or not (as corrupt spell-like ability states)?
Finally, is there any reason to think that vile damage is automatically unholy?
I can't find where the description of holy or unholy damage is given, but in the BoVD, under "corrupt spell" it says
For example, a corrupted fireball cast by a 6th-level wizard deals 6d6 points of damage: 3d6 points of fire damage and 3d6 points of unholy damage. Thus, creatures immune to fire still potentially take 3d6 points of damage."
Under "corrupt spell-like ability," however, the BoVD says
For example, if a corrupted fireball from a pit fiend deals a total of 35 points of damage, half of that amount (18 points) is fire damage and the other half (17 points) is unholy damage. Nonevil creatures immune to fire still take the 17 points of unholy damage.
