When casting this spell and laying his hand upon a creature, the priest causes 2d8 points of damage to the target creature. If a creature is avoiding this touch, an attack roll is needed to determine if the priest's hand strikes the opponent and causes such a wound.
This spell works only on living creatures. It does not work on undead, golems, plants or other non-living creatures.
This spell can be cast while in melee combat using Unarmed Combat rules. If the cleric fails to touch the target, the spell is not cast. |
