Faithful Mount (Priest Spell)

Casting this spell places a mount under a powerful magic that combines the effects of charm mammal and speak with animals. The mount remains loyal to the priest who cast the spell, and the two can converse as if under a permanent speak with animals spell. Further, the mount receives a +3 bonus to saving throws against fear spells and effects and additional charm mammal spells or effects directed at it after faithful mount is cast upon it.
Mounts that can be affected include horses, ponies, mules, donkeys, camels, rhinoceroses, elephants, giant stags, griffons, hippogriffs, pegasi, unicorns, and other animals that can be ridden. The mount is allowed a saving throw vs. spell, with a +2 bonus if it has greater than animal intelligence (Intelligence 1) and magical defense adjustment modifications if it has an exceptional Wisdom. Success means the animal is not affected by the spell, nor can it be affected by subsequent castings of the spell by the same priest.
The material component for the spell is a lump of sugar.
Notes: Granted by the evil god Malar the Beastlord of the Forgotten Realms setting.
