Trithereon’s Retribution

This spell is only used on those considered to be wrongdoers when measured against the precepts of the faith. Those “eligible” include slaveholders, dictators, brutal army officers, and those who oppress others. It can also be cast on those who have perpetrated some terrible wrong.
To cast this spell the priest must physically touch the recipient.
This spell has two effects:

• First, it places a pursuit rune on the recipient’s forehead that cannot be removed.
• Second, when the target commits an act of violence aimed at the oppressed the target suffers a like amount of damage. This damage occurs in exactly the same place as it does on the original recipient. i.e. if a slave is struck in the face then the target will exhibit a similar bruise and take the same amount of physical damage.

If this spell is used improperly on a creature the priest must atone for his sin or lose all spellcasting abilities and be ejected from the priesthood. Priests will normally be required to undertake a mission consummate to their abilities.
If the target creature makes its saving throw vs. spells then the spell has no effect. This saving throw is made at -1 per 4 caster levels.
