#ClericWeek

A player in one of my groups did not like how some of the available spells (e.g. Cause Fear, Speak with Dead) fit his Good-aligned Cleric’s concept so we looked at converting over a few spells from D&D that he could potentially swap out as an alternate.  These are what we came up for 1st level as a first pass:

Command 1

One living creature obeys one-word command for 1 round.

Comprehend Languages 1 Ongoing

Understand all spoken and written languages.  Written material is read at 1 page/min for a maximum of 10 min/level.  While this spell is ongoing you take -1 to cast a spell.

Healthful Rest 1

Up to 1 target/level may recover full HP when Making Camp.

Hide from Undead 1 Ongoing

Up to 1 target/level is warded.  Non-intelligent undead cannot see, hear, smell or otherwise sense the warded targets.  If a warded creature attempts to turn or command undead, touches an undead creature, or attacks any creature (even with a spell), the spell ends for all recipients.  While this spell is ongoing you take -1 to cast a spell.

Inhibit 1

Subject delays making any type of move until next round.

Lesser Vigor 1

Creature touched gains 1 HP per round for 10 rounds + 1 rnd/level (max 15).

Nimbus of Light 1 Ongoing

You glow like lantern (30ft radius).  As a Move, gather light then fling as a Volley for your damage.  Attack ends spell.  While this spell is ongoing you take -1 to cast a spell.

Ray of Resurgence 1

Remove one debility from target.

Resurgence 1

Target may reroll a failed (6-) Last Breath roll.  This must be cast in the round after the original Last Breath roll is made.
