Allitur's Mark

Allitur's Mark is a divine spell granted to the devoted priests of Allitur, the Flan god of Ethics and Propriety. It serves as a celestial tool for branding those found guilty of dishonesty or questionable moral integrity, as adjudged by the standards of the culture and the presiding priest. This specialized variant of the Faerie Fire spell cloaks the offender in a silvery, ethereal flame, highlighting their deceit to all.

Effects

• Visibility in Combat: The offender becomes enveloped in a glowing radiance, making them easier to target and negating the benefits of invisibility or concealment, akin to the effects of Faerie Fire.
• No Saving Throw for Direct Lies: Individuals proven to have lied directly to a priest of Allitur are afforded no saving throw against this spell, ensuring the mark of their dishonesty is seen by all.
• Permanent Branding: For lies that have led to catastrophic or tragic outcomes, a priest of Allitur of ninth level or higher has the capability to render Allitur's Mark permanent upon the offender. The targeted individual may attempt a saving throw; failure means the mark becomes a lasting testament to their deceit.
• Saving Throw: Success allows for the standard duration and effects of the spell. Failure results in the permanence of Allitur's Mark.

Cultural and Moral Implications

The application of Allitur's Mark is heavily influenced by the cultural context and the moral compass of the presiding priest. It is a potent reminder of the consequences of deceit, employed not as a punitive measure but as a means to restore balance and integrity within the community.

Conclusion

Allitur's Mark is more than just a spell; it is a divine instrument of ethical governance, embodying the essence of Allitur's teachings on honesty and propriety. Its use underscores the commitment of Allitur's clergy to uphold truth and ethical behavior, serving as a visible deterrent against deceit and moral corruption.
