This spell calls upon energy from the plane of brilliance in order to open a channel between it and the targets. The result is that any evil creatures within the spell effect take 1-4 damage for every level of the caster with a save vs spell for half. Also, if the victim fails his save, then he is blinded for 1 round.

Any invisible creatures within the area of effect have their invisibility dispelled. This includes creatures that are in Sanctuary, Improved Invisibility, Shadow Door, Invisibility, etc.

Any spell-casting creature that is affected by this spell has its casting ability severely impaired. When the creature attempts to cast a spell, it has an 80% chance of failure. A creature save vs. spells to avoid the affect, but does so at -2.

The effect of a Protection from Fire spell differs according to the recipient of the magic - either the caster or some other creature. In either case, the spell lasts no longer than 1 turn per caster level. When the spell is cast, it confers complete invulnerability to normal fires (torches, bonfires, oil fires, and the like) and significant resistance to exposure to magical fires such as fiery dragon breath, spells such as Burning Hands, Fireball, Fire Seeds, Fire Storm, Flame Strike, Meteor Swarm, hell hound or pyrohydra breath, etc., absorbing 80% of all the damage dealt by such magical sources.

With this spell, the caster is usually able to remove a curse on an object on a person or in the form of some undesired sending or evil presence. Note that the Remove Curse spell does not remove the curse from a cursed shield, weapon, or suit of armor, for example, although the spell typically enables the person afflicted with any such cursed item to get rid of it. Certain special curses may not be countered by this spell, or maybe countered only by a caster of a certain level or more.

By use of this spell, the priest can free one creature from the effects of any paralyzation or from related magic (such as a ghoul's touch or a Hold Person spell).

The target of this spell must make a saving throw vs. spells or come under its effects. When under the effects of the Rigid Thinking spell, the victim will randomly wander, attack the nearest person, or stand confused.

When this spell is cast, the entire party is given a 18/76 Strength. If a party member has a Strength higher than this (either naturally, or through a magical item), then his Strength is lowered to 18/76. The spell lasts for a single turn, whereupon everyone's Strength returns to normal.

the summon insects spell attracts a cloud or swarm of normal insects to attack one enemy of the caster. This swarm gathers at a point chosen by the caster, within the spell's range, and attacks any single creature the caster points to.

The victim may make a saving throw vs. breath weapons (with a -4 penalty) to escape the swarm. Otherwise, the victim receives 1 point of damage every two seconds for the duration of the spell. The victim fights with a -2 penalty to his attack roll and a +2 penalty to his Armor Class. The swarm will repeatedly bite the target, making it very difficult to cast spells (50% spell failure).
