The Cleric.
This class bears resemblance to religious orders of medieval times.
All clerics have their own 'spells' or 'prayers' in which they invoke
the name of their God. These are bestowed upon them for correct and
diligent prayers, deeds and worship.
Clerics are the next best in combat, after thieves, as they are
permitted to wear any armour types. Clerics gain 9 hit points per
point of constitution raised, and wield mostly crushing weapons.
Clerics can employ a fair number of magical items including most
potions, clerical and 'protection scrolls', most rings, some wands,
rods, and staves, many other magical items, and other magical
weaponry.
Cleric Spheres
--------------
Healing Sphere
This covers all types of healing from the healing of wounds,
to diseases, and poisons both natural and magical in nature.
Necromancy Sphere
This sphere delves in the undead and the evil nature of mankind
and his soul. Necromancy is sometimes not evil, however, but can
also be used to restore full life to a dead comrade, as in the
example of 'raise dead' or 'resurrection'.
Combat Sphere
Clerics have certain attack spells which they use to defend not
only themselves, but others as well. Such spells include 'bless',
'flamestrike' and 'spiritual hammer'.
Stellar Sphere
All that is involved with extra-spacial travel, the sun, moon,
stars, and the heavens is encompassed within this sphere of
influence. 'Dimensional Fold' and 'Light' are spells within
this sphere.
Protection Sphere
As one of the primary roles of a cleric is the protector as well
as the healer, the 'protection sphere' contains such spells as
'resist draining' or 'resist fire'.
Nature Sphere
All plant, animal, and elemental influences from the Gods are felt
within this sphere. Such spells are 'Plant door', 'Bark skin',
as well as 'Animal Friendship', and 'Create food and water'.
Divination Sphere
A cleric, being in favour with the deity that he worships, is able
to gain divine help in answering problems that face him. This
sphere allows answers of the type of that information which is
normally hidden to mortal eyes, such as detecting magic, augury
spells, etc.
