Touch of the Styx (Priest Spell)

This spell is a more potent version of the 2nd-level wizard spell forget. Touch of the Styx causes the subject to lose all memory of the last 24 hours unless a saving throw is made. There is no way to restore this memory except by relearning what occurred from the accounts of others.
In addition to normal verbal and somatic components, this spell requires that the caster have touched the true waters of the Styx sometime in his life. (Canny spellcasters know that just touching the Styx on Pandemonium has no effect on a sod's memories — a convenient loophole for would-be casters of this spell.) While this spell resembles blessed forgetfulness, it was actually developed independently and (unlike that spell) is usually not used by priests aligned with the archons of Mount Celestia.
Notes: Rare for planar priests. Unlikely to be learned except through visiting the Outer Planes.
