Description¶
When the priest casts a Sanctuary spell, it causes all of his opponents to ignore his existence, as if he were invisible. While protected by this spell, the subject cannot take direct offensive action without breaking the Sanctuary, but may use non-attack spells or otherwise act in any way that does not violate the prohibition against offensive action. This effect allows a warded priest to heal wounds, for example, or to Bless himself. He cannot cast spells on other creatures without ending the spell.
