In times of great trouble, a Cleric can call down the Divine Wrath of their patron. Based upon the strength of the caster's devotion, the displeasure of their deity may strike multiple foes, in up to three 'attack frames'. The wise cleric will remember, however, that their deity will strike harder against those that they most despise.

A cleric without a declared deity may still call upon the wrath of the Heavens, but doing so is more taxing and forces the cleric to kneel before the awesome power of the divine.

Damage Modifiers

The caster's CONVERT status is a major factor for damage, as most patrons will cause a cleric to deal more damage to creatures that other spells granted by the deity do. Specifically, the first effect of each attack frame does damage based on whether the deity is Smite/Bane aligned and whether the creature is living or undead (Koar is an exception to this, as his Wrath seems to strike both equally). The second effect is a critical strike based upon the specific deity, based on the type of damage favored by the cleric's deity, as in Divine Fury's flares.

Training in Spiritual Lore, Summoning increases the damage done by the second effect of each attack frame.

Number of Targets

The maximum number of targets affected per frame is based upon the caster's training in Spiritual Mana Control.

Time Delay

Drawing upon the wrath of one's patron is not a minor thing, and requires time both before and after to seek the attention of the deity or recover, as appropriate. The time it takes before the first attack frame can be lessened by training Spiritual Lore, Summoning, while the time between frames is lessened via Spiritual Mana Control.

After casting, there is a delay during which the Cleric cannot recast the spell. This is based upon the number of attacks that the Divine Wrath made, and is reduced by Spiritual Mana Control training, as that makes them a more-perfect conduit.

Miscellaneous Notes

  • Creatures not slain in a previous frame will be retargeted for the subsequent frames, but creatures killed free up a spot for a new target.
  • Moving from the room terminates the spell. This incurs the delay as if zero targets were attacked.

Deity-Specific Messaging (Caster's View)

The choice of patron deity controls the type of flares received.

Pantheon of Liabo

Charl

Lorminstra
As you pour your soul into an appeal to Lorminstra, the image of a snow-covered forest with an open ebon gate at its center flashes through your mind, and the cold of winter slowly settles into your bones.
It begins to snow -- small, white, faintly glowing snowflakes that appear immediately overhead and drift delicately down to dissolve as soon as they strike the ground. Several strike your skin, and, instead of melting, they only deepen the icy chill that resides within your marrow. The power of Lorminstra has answered your prayer.
As several faintly glowing snowflakes settle upon a zombie, they ignite with cold white flame.
As your connection to Lorminstra lessens, the snowflakes stop falling, and the few that still cling to you melt away. The icy cold gradually lifts from your body.
Lumnis
As you pour your soul into an appeal to Lumnis, you know that you are heard. As insight floods through you, the world around you seems misty and immaterial.
As divine wisdom illuminates all things around you, you gain a greater understanding of the frail, tenuous nature of existence and the beauty within that fragility. The power of Lumnis has answered your prayer.
Guided by the knowledge within you, you concentrate upon a rabid squirrel, and, by strength of will alone, you expose the natural weaknesses of a rabid squirrel.
As your connection to Lumnis lessens, the world of divine insight slips away from you, destroying the subtle understanding that you so briefly managed to grasp.
Oleani

Phoen
The exact messaging for this deity is not yet known. Help Krakiipedia by filling it in.
Ronan
As you pour your soul into an appeal to Ronan, you know that you are heard. Dreamlike lassitude fills your body, and everything darkens around you.
Your vision splits and twins -- with one sight, you see the world around you, and, with the other, you see a wide, barren plain stretching away beneath a midnight sky. The silhouetted forms of pure black unicorns run soundlessly toward you across the dreaming plain. The power of Ronan has answered your prayer.
Seen only by your spirit gaze, one of the dream unicorns lowers its head and charges fiercely toward an eidolon! Just before impact, the unicorn's horn glows fiercely amber in hue.
You lose sight of the dream unicorns and the barren plain upon which they run as your connection to Ronan lessens. The waking world seems brighter again as the sense of dreamlike lassitude leaves you.

Marlu
As you pour your soul into an appeal to Marlu, you know that you are heard. Everything wavers slightly, and your forehead stings as if it were touched by a drop of some caustic liquid, but the pain lasts less than a second.
Tendrils of seeping black mist materialize at a safe distance away from you. A great awareness of their incredibly lethal power presses into your mind as the tendrils begin to shift and coil about in search of prey. The power of Marlu has answered your prayer.
A tendril of black mist suddenly senses the proximity of a tawny brindlecat. The mist expands into a large, quickly moving, highly lethal cloud that rapidly surrounds the brindlecat, obliterating it from view.
???(end messaging)
Mularos
As you pour your soul into an appeal to Mularos, you know that you are heard. The sting of an unseen triple lash blazes across your face, and, as blood drips slowly down your cheek, you feel the touch of an invisible hand resting lightly against your throat.
The touch of the ethereal hand against your throat grows colder, and the sensation shifts to encircle your neck like a collar. Before this manifestation of divine will, you are helpless, and you are helpless as well as the very air around you solidifies into a barbed whip, coiling and shifting restlessly. The power of Mularos has answered your prayer.
The ethereal barbed whip that lies loosely coiled around you uncoils at terrifying speed. It snaps out toward a young grass snake!
As your connection to Mularos lessens, the cold, invisible collar locked about your throat fades into a compassionate caress, and a similar caress traces its way across the side of your cheek. Beneath that gentle touch, the wounds upon your face heal immediately. The ethereal barbed whip twitches one last time before dissolving back into air.

Leya
As you pour your soul into an appeal to Leya, you know that you are heard. A wave of divine sorrow and anger washes through you, and, on the trailing end of that wave, and a rush of controlled power flows from your heart to your fingertips and toes.
An ivory light blossoms into existence around you.
A dagger of ivory light suddenly flashes away from the aura surrounding you to strike at a kobold.
The ivory light around you fades and glimmers out, and the strength and control of your movements lessens along with your connection to Leya.

Onar
As you pour your soul into an appeal to Onar, you know that you are heard. In the depths of your soul, you make the contract that will permit you a chance to obtain the death that you desire.

Voaris
As you pour your soul into an appeal to Voaris, you know that you are heard. You feel a brief, warm pressure on your brow, like a kiss of benediction.
Luminescent golden roses sprout from the ground in a wide ring around you, twisting and twining about as they grow. The power of Voaris has answered your prayer.
A glowing golden rose touches a zombie and bursts into scarlet flame!
You feel the kiss of benediction once more upon your brow, and then your connection to Voaris lessens. One of the glowing golden roses lights with scarlet flame, and the fire spreads rapidly down the vine until every rose is burning. The flames consume the roses swiftly and without smoke, until, in less than a second, the roses are gone entirely.
