Ela's Blessing (Priest Spell)

A priest who has spent enough time in the faith of Ela's Quick Fingers learns that the church em­braces some of the thieving habits of the denizens of the night, whom the goddess protects. This spell gives the priest the special thieving skills of a thief of his or her level for its duration. For example, a 5th level priest, after casting this spell, gains the base thieving skill scores (PP 15%, OL 10%, F/RT 5%, MS 10%, HS 5%, DN 15%, CW 60%, RL 0%), plus racial, armor, and Dexterity adjustments and the 180 discretionary points the priest would have as a 5th level thief. The priest can allocate the points differently each time the spell is cast (the player is encouraged to adopt a standard set of scores for the priest when under the effect of this spell, to speed play). The normal restrictions on point allocation described for the thief class in the Player's Handbook apply. The priest can cast this enchantment only on himself or herself.
The material component is the symbol of Ela.
Notes: Granted by Ela, a goddess of thieves. (Updated from Dragon Magazine).
