Sometimes, mercy is called for in the martial field. With this prayer, the paladin asks his or her deity to dull the edge of a weapon so it inflicts subdual damage instead of lethal damage. This does not alter the weapon's damage type, or otherwise change the weapon in any way, although the weapon deals an extra 1d6 in a divine effort to end the struggle quickly. This added damage is also nonlethal. Despite the name of the prayer, any sort of weapon wielded by the paladin may be affected. If the paladin drops or otherwise loses the weapon, the spell ends. |

Sometimes, mercy is called for in the martial field. With this prayer, the paladin asks his or her deity to dull the edge of a weapon so it inflicts subdual damage instead of lethal damage. This does not alter the weapon's damage type, or otherwise change the weapon in any way, although the weapon deals an extra 1d6 in a divine effort to end the struggle quickly. This added damage is also nonlethal. Despite the name of the prayer, any sort of weapon wielded by the paladin may be affected. If the paladin drops or otherwise loses the weapon, the spell ends.
For the purposes of this last-minute spell, the wielding of the weapon is considered its Somatic component.
