Prayer Name: Divorce
SP Cost: --
Coin Cost: 100,000 Coppers per person
Syntax: divorce <name> <description>
Skills used: None
Description:
The ability to divorce is the offset of marriage, but
the cost is double, in the sense that it costs
100,000 coppers per person instead of for both. This
is because each person must have a cleric divorce them
as the power is to the individual declaring the divorce.
Marriage is a sacred event and should be done with
all seriousness. The action of divorce is left up
to the clerical guilds and religions to determine
when it should occur This means that the guild or
cleric can decide what extra punishment may be
meted out beyond the cost.
OOC NOTES: The syntax you use will show you how your
divorce description will be seen around the

you confirm the message will be relayed. This
allows you a chance to practice.

Syntax: vision <target>
Skills used: --

This prayer will bring the powers of your faith to bear and
compile a vision of dramatic proportions in the form of your
prayer to the intended target. Use of this prayer must be
seldom for the power of the vision can alter the targets
life with the thoughts that they will perceive.
A vision is to be used to guide and create a mystic
direction for a person. It is not to be used as the voice of
a God. Using visions to force new players toward a religion
or make a player think a God is talking to them is against
the rules.
Your target must be aware in order to receive the vision.
(ooc: they must be online.)
Note: Because of the cost and time it takes to be able to
use this power, you might want to create the vision
in a text editor and mud mail it to yourself first
to ensure proper format.

Syntax: dahkorb <target>
Skills used: combat attack, mental focus, cleric preach
Description:

SP Cost: --
Syntax: Read the sign at the Temple

SP Cost: 75
Syntax: dahkmind <target>
Skills used: cleric preach, mental discipline, mental focus

helpless against your might.

Prayer Name: Dahkflames
SP Cost: 100
Syntax: dahkflames
Skills used: cleric preach, cleric faith, cleric knowledge
Description:
This prayer will encircle you in a ring of flames that will

The fiery flames cause damage based on your skills and will
remain around you for a duration that is also based on your
skills and your level continuing to burn your enemies with
impunity.
Prayer Name: Barrier
SP Cost: 175
Syntax: barrier
Skills used: cleric faith, cleric preach, merchant leader
combat defense
Description:
There comes a time when you wish to keep people from leaving
an area where you are for one reason or another. This powerful
prayer sets up barriers of spiritual darkness that will stop
all but the most forceful and powerful from crossing.
It takes some time to create the barrier and once created
it will block all exits. A person attempting to leave the area
will suffer a certain amount of energy loss as the darkness
sucks their power from them.
Some interesting aspects of the spiritual barrier are that a
person can enter an area that has a barrier, just not leave it.
Also, the barrier is only effective against adventurers.
The strength and duration of the barrier is based on the clerics
skills.
Prayer Name: Reject
SP Cost: 75
Syntax: reject <target>
Skills used: merchant leadership, cleric preach, cleric faith
Description:
There are times when you are so completely irritated with
a person that you can't stand the sight of them and need
to remove them from your presence without actually wanting
to kill the infidel. It is these times that you can pray for
the power of Dahkoar to reject the moron and banish them
from your sight.
Upon success the rejection will blast the victim several
rooms away from you and leave them dazed for a time. Some
clerics have found this ability to be both rewarding and
in humorous as you watch the person fly from your sight.
Note: for obvious reasons ability is only effective against
other players.
Prayer Name: Darken Shadows
SP Cost: 150
Syntax: darkenshadows
Skills used: cleric faith, mental discipline, cleric knowledge
Description:
Sometimes it is important to remain hidden and to block the abilities
of others to find someone who is hidden. With this prayer you
call darkness into the corners and shadows of an area making it
nearly impossible for a person to be found if they are using an
ability or item to hide them.
The strength of the darkening is based on your skills and level and
success in finding a person in the dark shadows is based on their
skills and level. The darkened shadows will not be noticeable to
anyone searching the area, they will just fail to find anyone they
are searching for.
Prayer Name: Earthquake
SP Cost: 150
Syntax: earthquake
Skills used: combat attack, cleric faith, cleric knowledge
cleric preach
Description:
Powerful and deadly the earthquake is a massive destructive
force that will build slowly and then lay waste to anyone
in the room. Luckily only your foes will be harmed by the
movement of the earth around them.
The earthquake will do most of its damage when it hits

anyone who continues to be foolish enough to remain
in the same area with you.
The power and damage involved is based on your skills
and level.
Prayer Name: Poison Cloud
SP Cost: 250
Syntax: poisioncloud <direction>
Skills used: combat attack, cleric faith, mental focus, cleric preach
Description:
Sending a cloud of poisonous gas into an area is a skill hard earned
by the adept cleric. This gaseous force forms on the hand of the cleric
and is blown in the direction the cleric dictates causing all in
the area to be infected by the noxious fumes.
The power and distance the cloud will travel is based on the cleric's
skills and level. Resistance to the cloud's fumes are based on the
level and skills of those caught in it. As with most detrimental
powers, those devoted to Dahkoar are saved from the fumes.
It should be noted that the cloud will only travel in a straight
line and stop if there is no further direction to travel until it
dissipates.
Prayer Name: Mirrorhit
SP Cost: 80
Syntax: mirrorhit
Skills used: combat defense, cleric faith, cleric preach
Description:
In ancient times the Mirrorhit was referred to as the
ultimate life preserver, having saved several clerics
from certain death during the time of the chaos
struggles when very powerful destruction was visited
on the land.
The power surrounds the cleric with a force that acts as
a mirror against pain and damage causing the full force
of damage to be mirrored back onto the aggressor. The
mirror only lasts for the first time the cleric takes
damage, but has proven lethal and saving when a foe
can deliver a killing blow in one hit.
How often you can call this power is dependant on your
skills and level.
Prayer Name: Dahkblast
SP Cost: 250
Syntax: dahkblast <target>
Skills used: combat attack, mental focus, cleric faith, cleric preach,
cleric knowledge, level
Description:
Nothing can properly describe the awesome power of
blasting your foes into oblivion. Known to only leave
the outline of lesser beings in the ground after
being visited upon by this destructive force, many
have chosen not to anger the dahkoar cleric for fear
of being the next victim.
The dahkblast coalesces the forces of darkness into
one powerful blast that rips through armor, protective
spells, tissue, bone, and sinew, leaving the victim
in a heap of ruined body parts.
Prayer Name: Animate Dead
SP Cost: 400
Syntax: animatedead
Skills used: merchant leader, mental discipline, cleric preach
Description:
Animate dead is a much stronger prayer than the less powerful
animate corpse. In this situation the corpse is raised from
the dead in its original form to be controlled like a puppet
by the marionnette. While not wielding all of the attributes
of the original, it will have the same appearance and some of
the powers of the original.
Success will allow you to control the undead with the commands
listed below. Failure will destroy the corpse. Because of the
difficulty of this prayer, usage is infrequent.
Commands available to control the undead. Use the command

Also, breaking rules or using the undead to act out of
character will result in harsh penalties.
Prayer Name: Dahk Plague
SP Cost: 400
Syntax: dahkplague
Skills used: cleric faith, merchant leader, mental focus, cleric preach
Description:
Horrible beyond belief, the Dahk Plague is a slow, yet insufferably
evil disease that has been known to wipe out entire communities.
Much care must be taken before the cleric unleashes such a
volatile destruction on society, for many may perish from this
rancid infection.
The victims who contract the disease are likely to succumb to death
while passing on the skin mutilating toxin to others. The massive
ramifications from this prayer are based on the cleric's skills
and level. Contracting the disease is based on the level and skills
of those exposed.
Devotees to the faith of Dahkoar are immune to the plague.
Prayer Name: Terror
SP Cost: 150
Syntax: terror
Skills used: merchant leader, cleric preach, mental discipline,
wisdom, charisma
Description:
This illusion is formed by the clerics mind and skills creating
a vision of ultimate terror in everyone nearby. The images
created are horrifying and can cause even the most stalwart
adventurer to cry out in fear.
The style and terror of the illusion is based on the skills, level,
wisdom and intellect of the cleric. The fear created is based on
the skills, level, wisdom, and intellect of the victims. On success
the victims will flee the area possibly dropping items, weapons, and
gear as they run.
Devotees of Dahkoar will be able to see through the illusion of terror.
Prayer Name: Summon Fiend
SP Cost: 500
Syntax: summonfiend
Skills used: All
Description:
Summoning of a fiend is a very powerful prayer that calls upon
a creature of the netherworld and darkness to come forth from
their domain and serve the cleric that calls them.
A fiend is a notoriously hideous foe and to force it to servitude
can be challenging at best. Failure to successfully hold command
over the fiend will cause it to attack the cleric on arrival both
viciously and dangerously.
The rewards of success are quite marketable, however, and the
fiend that can be held in captivity is bound by an invisible
chain to the cleric. Success or failure is based on your skills
and level.
Commands available to control the Fiend:
---------------------------------------------------------------
fiend follow me: Fiend will follow you.
fiend unfollow me: Fiend will stop following you.
fiend protect me: Fiend will protect you.
fiend unprotect me: Fiend will stop protecting you.
fiend attack <target>: Fiend will attack the target.
fiend hpall now: Fiend will will hpall.
fiend get <item>: Fiend will get everything in the room.
fiend drop <item>: Fiend will drop the item named.
fiend emote <emote>: Fiend will use an emote.
fiend disperse now: Fiend will be released.
Note: Fiends under your control do not speak, so do not try to make
them speak. Breaking rules or using the fiend to act out of
character will result in harsh penalties.
Prayer Name: Spirit Walk
SP Cost: 350
Syntax: spiritwalk
Skills used: mental focus, cleric knowledge, mental discipline
Description:
Leaving one's body is an extremely dangerous yet exhilirating
ability for while one is away from their body they risk death as
the longer one is away the closer they come to entering into
death's realm.
Once in spirit form a cleric can pass through areas without detection,
virtually moving invisibly. While in spirit, the cleric still has
mass and therefore cannot pass through walls, floors, or ceilings.
The length of time one can walk as a spirit is based on the skills
and level of the cleric.
Prayer Name: Global Despair
SP Cost: 500
EP Cost: 1000
HP Cost: 250
Syntax: Global Despair
Skills used: merchant leader, cleric preach, cleric faith,
mental discipline, wisdom, constitution
Description:
Similar to the power of Terror, Global Despair is more debilitating
and dangerous world wide, for rather than illusion, this strike
against the very heart and mind of all adventurers can cause real
physical pain and mental anguish as well as fatigue.
During the course of the despair, those affected will be smitten
by losses in health, power, and endurance based on their skills,
level, and constitution. The power of the despair is based on
that of your skills, level, and wisdom.
Care should be taken when causing such havoc globally as surely
there will be beings who wish to retaliate against such pain.
Luckily, the faithful devotees of Dahkoar will be completely
safe from such harm.
It should be noted that the focus and cost of such a wide spread
action will reduce you in power, health, and endurance at the time
of the prayer and will limit you in calling on other prayers for
some time.
Prayer Name: Recall
SP Cost: 500
Coin Cost: 1,000,000 Coppers
Syntax: recall <target>
Skills used: merchant leader, cleric faith, cleric preach,
cleric knowledge, mental focus, mental discipline
Description:
Recalling someone from the land of the permanently dead is
something only achieved by the most powerful clerics. Even then
it is possible to fail in the endeavor as one must call upon
their God to seek out the banished spirit and pray that somehow
their God will force the spirit back into the land of the living.
It is never guaranteed that this will occur and the cost is
great. Many have defrayed the cost by asking the temple to
support the payment via tithes.
Note: Read help permadeath. This power is possible only for
those that have fallen to permadeath.
Prayer Name: Holocaust
SP Cost: 700
Syntax: Holocaust
Skills used: All skills and attributes
Description:
The power of holocaust is so great that it takes some time
to form the prayer and call upon the powers of darkness to fall
upon all in the immediate area of the cleric. It is such a
release of power and destruction that even those in the
surrounding rooms are blasted by this mighty explosion.
So incredibly forceful the holocaust is not directional and
no one is immune from the destructive blast that is finally
released be it friend or foe. The cacophony of energies spewed
forth form in a mighty eruption as great as that of a volcano
as the very ground is charred and every creature within range
is decimated by the force of the furious shockwave.
It would do well to be far from the cleric who calls forth the
holocaust for those within the surrounding area will likely
be burned by the shockwave and left a charred corpse.
The power and destructive force of the holocaust is based
on the skills and level of the cleric and the armour, skills,
attributes, and level of the victims.
