Description

Charms one person-type creature or normal mammal within 80 yds.; vs. spell negates. The charmed subject treats the priest as a friend/ally and tends to obey reasonable requests (rechecking based on over time). Won't compel obvious self-destruction. No beyond the holy symbol.

Flavour

The priest's gentle words win over a person or beast, who comes to regard them as a trusted friend.
