Description
A cathedral-shaped canopy of warm, transparent light rises around you and follows you for the duration. Choose up to six willing creatures within its radius when you cast. A chosen creature inside the area gains resistance to radiant, necrotic, and psychic damage. Once per round when one chosen creature within the canopy takes damage, you may use your reaction to reduce that damage by 3d10 + your spellcasting ability modifier (minimum 1). A creature leaving the radius loses these benefits until it returns. The canopy provides no physical cover.
Velvet Court Devotion. Velyssara. Velyssara’s temples describe this shelter as a visible promise of chosen closeness; intimacy strengthens protection without obliging anyone to stay.
Devotional Rite. Each willing target may freely leave the cathedral’s area. When it returns, its protection resumes under the spell’s original rules; no social or romantic bond is imposed.
- Veiled Effects. The first time a chosen creature succeeds on a saving throw against becoming frightened during this spell, it gains temporary hit points equal to your proficiency bonus.
- Unveiled Effects. Once per casting, when your reaction prevents damage to a willing creature other than yourself, you may gain 1 Arousal after the attack resolves. If you do, that creature may reduce its Arousal by 1. Alternatively, spend 1 Libido when casting to increase the radius to 45 feet. Choose one enhancement.
“A cathedral is not a building when six hearts become its walls.”
