Zealot (1617)
| ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Focusing entirely on the offensive, Zealot enables the paladin to bolster their resolve and that of their party. The paladin and everyone in their group gains a +30 bonus to Melee Attack Strength (AS) while suffering a a -30 Defensive Strength (DS) penalty. Additionally, while under the effect of Zealot, characters are forced into offensive stance and cannot change stance. If anyone leaves the paladin's group, they will lose the effect of the spell.
When Zealot is active, Divine Shield (1609) may not be cast.
Using EVOKE will self-cast the spell without the group effect.
STOP ZEALOT or STOP 1617 will terminate the spell, allowing the paladin and anyone in the group (if the spell was group-cast) to regain their defenses.
Training in Spiritual Lore, Religion will increase the AS benefit and reduce the DS penalty.

Messaging
| Cast | A surge of radiant energy coalesces around you and those nearby. Your spirit is empowered with an overwhelming sense of determination and resolve. Distant sounds of fifes and drums resound in the back of your mind, spurring you into a delirium of confidence and resolve -- as if compelled by some irresistible divine exhortation. |
