Holy Aura vs Spell Resistance

[Warhaven]

Let's say a paladin uses his special ability to cast Holy Aura on persons A, B, C, and himself. Then, a monster with SR decides to attack person A. The paladin makes a check vs the monster's SR and fails to overcome it. Is the monster now immune to Holy Aura's effects as a whole? That is, should the monster now attack person B, person C, or the paladin, the monster needn't worry about the effects of Holy Aura on those individuals as well?

Or, are person B, person C, and the paladin considered different instances?

The SR check for holy aura is not done against the monster's SR, it's against the person you're buffing. This means if you cast the spell on a party member that has SR you would have to overcome their SR to buff them, but if a monster then attacks the person the monster's SR is irrelevant.

SR is always for the direct target. Holy Aura targets the one you want to protect, not the monster. This is why the SR entry has the "(harmless)" note.

The only weirdness here is the part where holy aura can cause blindness on the target, as blindness/deafness, and that spell allows SR. For this one effect I'd say to make the SR check once and let that result stand for all affected (the general rule is that you make one SR check per spell, regardless of its ability to have multiple effects). However, if this SR check failed that would only affect the blindness thing, the other effects are entirely buffs on the PC and shouldn't be affected.
