This spell summons 50 extraplanar creatues which will serve you in the duration period. The extraplanar creatures comes from the same plane as the deity (which meens that most of the human deities can't grant this spell). This spell are considered very evil, since for some reason only evil beings are summoned by this spell. If a PC of good alignment cast this, he will be subject to a major losses of regency (as described in the rulebook p.38).

This spell creates a short lived portal to the Shadow
world, through which comes a dark being to do the priest's bidding. It will remain on the
earth for 1 year, during which it makes every attempt to carry out his command, and then
it fades away.
The spell can only be cast during Emmanier, the month leading up to the Eve of the Dead.
It culminates on the Eve, with the opening of the portal for a period of about 5 minutes.
During this time, the priest must offer a blooded victim, preferably a regent, to seal the
bargain. If he has no suitable person, the creature takes him instead.
Additionally, this spell can only be performed in one of a few locations around Cerilia,
where ancient stone circles stand. These are found in the Erebannien, the Giantdowns,
Drachenward, and of course, your player's holdings :)

As Calm Sailing this spell is restricted to priests of Nesirie. It
allows a priest to deprive any number of adjacent coastal areas of wind and waves making
it impossible for non-magical non-oared vessels to sail in,out or through the affected
areas. On the other hand oared vessels add 1 to their rowing rates when inside the
affected areas.
This spell was first used by the ETN as a retaliation to Mieres for the violent
distruction of their temple holdings.

When enacted, this causes any invading units in your realm to be pushed out by the wrath of your divine power. You pour your mystic energy at them-- destroying the weaker units, and sending the others fleeing from your divine wrath.
All units affected take 1 hit of damage. They must also make a save vs spell at -1 for every three levels over 7th. If they fail this saving throw, then they are forced to flee toward their homelands until they reach there. They will stop for nothing, and continue to march even without supplies. Unless the regent gives supplys for his troops (one GB per five units/provinces) they will take another hit of damage for every 5 provinces they have to cross on the way home.
This spell effects any enemy troop in your entire realm, although you
have to spend 2 regency points for every troop your going to affect. If
you affect a province, you have to affect all the troops in that province.
Example: If there were 3 units in province A and 2 units in province B--
you could spend 6rp to affect the units in province A or 4rp to affect
the units in province B, or even 10rp to affect all the units. You couldnt,
though, just spend 2rp to only affect one unit.

By casting this spell, the priest is able to cause the exterior border of a domain to have the deity's attention. The borders when crossed by enemy troops causes the enemy units to make a moral check. The units that fail the moral check will still be able to come across the border to fight in the war; however since they failed the moral check that unit will feel that this is not a just and fair battle, thus the unit will have a minus 1 to all stats and on the next moral check during battle will automatically fail. If this spell is cast while enemy troops are in the casting priest's domain, those units are uneffected unless they cross the exterior border and then reenter the priest's domain again; then, they must make moral checks. Since, mercenary troops do not fight for a cause, they will automatically fail the moral check.
Cost for this Realm spell:
If the priest has a temple in every province then it will cost 2 GBs
and 3 RPs per province. If the priest does not have temples in every provence
then the cost is 4 GBs and 6 RPs per province. All of the province must
be paid for in order for this real spell to work. For example, I have temples
in all of Tuornen. It would cost me 16 GBs and 24 RPs to cast spell; however,
I only have 15 GBs and 23 RPs then this spell could not be cast. This spell
is all or nothing.
Drums of Chaos

Regency: 10 RP / month | Req'd Holding: 4 |
Gold: 5 GB | Character Level: 7 |
Duration: Once per battle and up to 1/2 caster level in months |
A group of Drum players and their drums will be enchanted. These drums can only be of the biggest kind found in Anuire, like Japanese drums which can have a diameter of up to 1,5 m. The players of these drums can once per battle play a special hymn to Cuiraecen which strikes fear in the hearts of the enemy: all enemy units make a morale check immediately; failure means fleeing the battlefield altogether. Units that make it can fight on like normal. Those units that flee will scatter and it takes at least a full week up to 2 weeks until they are regrouped and can be used for a new battle in an army. The effects of this spell can be used as long as the period for which the spell was cast, but only once per battle.

This realm spell is like the Maintain Armies spell described in the Priestcraft accessory. However, as it belongs to the Combat and War spheres it must work differently: Haelyn's Noble War inspires an urge in the troops to engage in noble war and right something that some other nation or regent has done wrong (as viewed by the spellcasting priest). This urge is so strong that the units will fight for the priest regent without either food or pay (surviving on their faith alone). The spell still costs 1 GB and 1 RP pr. 3 units affected, but this is spent on maintaining horses, armor and weapons etc.
The spell will only be provided by Haelyn under the following two conditions: First, the troops affected must be worshippers of Haelyn, or at least have a majority of Haelyn worshippers. Second, they must be involved in noble warfare. If it is peace time then Haelyn will not provide the spell. (So, get out there and slay some bad guys!) Also it can only maintain units for one turn, each turn after that the troops will start to starve. You can still use it after 1 turn but any units with only one hit will die, after two turn any units with 2 hits dies, and so on. Basically, for each turn longer the units take one hit and if they are used in battle then they will have that hit already. However, the spell can be used on alternate turns (1, 3, 5 etc.) without any penalty because the in-between turns (2, 4, 6 etc.) can be used to feed the troops again. So, technically, the best use of this spell might be to have two armies and then cast it alternatively on each.
Like the Maintain Armies spell, this spell must be cast in action 3 of a domain turn.

This spell summons good Fighters, Paladins, and Rangers for a holy crusade against the infidel. Even a Lawful Good Regent is summoned to the lead the combined armies in the Holy Crusade. This spell is powerful and can be difficult to prepare.
First of all, the Priest casting the spell must send letters to all the churches in nearby lands stating the nature of the enemy and how he is threatening the land (A holy Crusade against the Gorgon, go figure). Then he must send the same messages to the regents.
The net effect of the spell is that the Crusader kit becomes available
to anyone and everyone (even Wizards and thieves!). Although those
first summoned will have taken the crusader or cavalier kit already and
will be either fighters or paladins. The first recruits for the holy
army will be 1d4x10 1st and 2nd-level fighters and paladins.
The army will appear in a time period equal to the DM's judgement,
but shouldn't be more than 3 months. This army is under control of
the Church and is under the Church's payroll. Other armies will appear
over time (2d4 months).

Duration: 1 turn + 1 turn/5 levels of priest.
This spell enables a priest to shield any holding against all magic.
This means that no realm spell (eg Subversion) can effect the holding and
it is also protected against battle magic and other normal spells. If the
holding is fortified and troops are stationed in the protected holding
then they too gain the same protection against magic as the holding does.
This protection only last while the units remain inside the holding however.
If they leave then they lose all their magical
protection.
