Range: 10d feet -5d(d-1)/2%

Duration: (Not Finger / Ray of Death!) t min / 10t min (Silver Halo) -5t(t-1)/2%

Notes:

  1. Targets a single living Being.  Has no effect upon the Undead.

  2. If Target fails its st against Finger / Ray of Death, it is dead.

  3. If Target fails its st against The Palm that Stuns / The Note that Stuns, it is stunned.

  4. Ray of Death is identical to Finger of Death except a ray of light shines from Caster's palm to Target.

  5. Silver Halo traps the Target's soul in a silver circlet which flies back to the caster. Breaking the circlet (easy with a little physical force: dropping it on a hard surface gives a roughly 50/50 chance of breaking it!) kills the soul. The end of the Duration releases the soul, which immediately returns to the body. The body is in suspended animation whilst the soul is Silver Haloed. A Silver Haloed soul is of itself of little value to Demons. There is no restriction on distance between the Silver Halo and body.
