Blind is a warding spell that causes the image of the cleric's deity to be superimposed over him/herself. This vision will blind the target, causing it to be stunned for the duration of the effect.

On a warding margin of 20 or more (endroll of +120 or higher), there is a chance the target will be forced into a kneeling position, which is increased with training in Spiritual Lore, Religion.

Undead and creatures that are immune to stuns cannot be affected by this spell.

Lore Benefit

Every three ranks in Spiritual Lore, Religion increases the percentage chance to force kneeling by 1%.

Spiritual Lore, Religion ranks 0 3 30 60 90 120 150 180 210 240
Chance to force kneeling 20% 21% 30% 40% 50% 60% 70% 80% 90% 100%
Not all thresholds shown. Chance increases by an additional 1% per 4 points of endroll above 120.

Messaging

Main article

The target of this spell will see a message based on the cleric's alignment.

Cholen
Caster sees: As your faith overcomes <target>'s weakened defenses, you sense the merriment and goodwill of the Jester flowing through you.
Target sees: <caster>'s face shimmers and vanishes, and, in its place, you see the image of a young, golden-haired man with a smile of delight curving his lips. His eyes are the color of the sky, and they sparkle brightly with merriment.
Imaera
Caster sees: As your faith overcomes <target>'s weakened defenses, you sense the warmth and healing power of the Lady of the Green flowing through you.
Target sees: <caster>'s face shimmers and vanishes, and, in its place, you see the image of a beautiful sylvan woman garbed in robes of leaves and flowers. A halo of pale green radiance surrounds her, and healing light shines in her eyes as she smiles jubilantly -- but then the light fades, and everything else fades along with it.
Ivas
Caster sees: As your faith overcomes <target>'s weakened defenses, you sense the passion and sensuality of the Seductress flowing through you.
Target sees: <caster>'s face shimmers and vanishes, and, in its place, you see the image of a staggeringly beautiful woman. Shimmering smoke surrounds her face, distorting it slightly, but her long-lashed eyes gaze knowingly into yours, dark with an unmistakable invitation. The image sears itself into your eyes before everything dissolves in a wash of grey.
Koar
Caster sees: As your faith overcomes <target>'s weakened defenses, you sense the majesty of the King of the Gods flowing through you.
Target sees: <caster>'s face shimmers and vanishes, and, in its place, you see the image of an ancient man wearing a majestic crown of pure light. The lines of his face are weary, and a great, snow-white beard flows from his chin, but his heavy-lidded blue eyes transfix you with their power. Divine radiance blazes around the image, and you are blinded.
Oleani
Caster sees: As your faith overcomes <target>'s weakened defenses, you sense the radiance and love of the Mistress of Adoration flowing through you.
Target sees: <caster>'s face shimmers and vanishes, and, in its place, you see the image of an exquisitely beautiful Dark Elf with spring flowers braided into her hair. A warm smile curves her lips as she gazes at you from beneath lowered lashes.
