• Rank 1 Holy Spell
• Prayer name: St Benester’s Word
• Duration: 12 Turns
• Range: The caster

Invoking the name of an archangel, the caster is warded from attacks by Chaotic creatures as well as creatures created or summoned by magic.

AC and Saving Throw bonus: The caster gains a +1 Armour Class and Saving Throw bonus against attacks and special powers of affected creatures.

Magically created or summoned creatures: The prayer additionally prevents such creatures from making melee attacks against the caster, though they may still make ranged attacks. If the caster engages such a creature in melee, this protection is broken (though the caster still gains the Armour Class and Saving Throw bonuses mentioned above).
