Despair allows a Bleaker wizard to share his world view with others. When this spell is cast, 2d4 sentient creatures (of intelligence 3 or better) in the area of effect must make a successful Will save or lapse into a severe depression that lasts for 1 minute for each level of the caster. Victims of Despair don’t even bother to defend themselves; opponents can automatically strike, disarm, or bind them with out resistance. If a body’s bound or damaged, he gets another saving throw to shake off the effects of the spell. Interestingly, Primes, and members of the Free League are somewhat resistant to this spell, perhaps because they’re not stuck on any particular philosophy; they gain a +2 bonus to their Will save. This spell is only available to the members of the Bleak Cabal. This spell was originally printed in "The Factol's Manifesto" By: Bruce Brown Imported from a previous version of Planewalker.com
