Flavor

The priest's touch slows a poison coursing through a victim, buying precious time to find a cure.

Mechanics

Slows the effect of poison in the touched creature for 1 hr./, suspending or greatly reducing its progress (and temporarily restoring a poisoned/dying victim to function) without curing it — the poison resumes when the spell ends unless neutralized. A stopgap before neutralize poison. : a bud of garlic and the holy symbol.
