Rending (Priest Spell)

This spell rends or destroys personal prop­erty, including livestock, pets, mounts, clothing, weapons, armor, jewelry, doors, chests, tapestries, and slaves (including mamluks). In short, anything that has been purchased or manufactured can be affected by this spell; it has no effect if cast on a free citizen or wild creature. Thus, a mount can be slain out from under its rider, but the same creature encountered running free in the wilderness is immune to the spell's effects. The caster can affect a single creature or item (one cubic foot per level of the caster) with this spell.
If the target is an object, it is completely shred­ded as if rended by invisible claws; magical items are allowed a saving throw vs. disintegration with a +4 bonus to resist the spell's effects. If the target is a purchased creature or a slave, the being suffers 3d8 points of damage; creatures of greater than animal Intelligence or more than 4 Hit Dice receive a saving throw vs. death magic to negate the spell.
Notes: Granted by the jungle god Ragarra of the Forgotten Realms setting.
