divine spells what do I say


3.5/d20/OGL


so I created a cleric character and I really want to emphasize role playing for once

a friend was showing me a video game on youtube and one of the spells the character was casting, the words he said sounded really cool and I want to say these cool things.

"I stand in the full light of the heavens command me who opens the gates of hell, come forth divine lightning. this ends NOW! Indignation."

I can change divine lightning to be divine fire and indignation with flame strike but I don't get flame strike until much later and I won't be able to use it.

does anyone know any cool sayings like this the kind that give you goosebumps when said. I need sayings for spells like bless, divine favor, shield of faith, magic weapon etc popular 1st level spells.

I saw another saying but I'm not sure how to apply it.

"all those with us are strong, all those against us, beware." maybe bull's strength.


awesome idea. I am all in favor of bringing more role playing to the table. The easiest way is to refer to the people as their character unless it's an obvious real world question such as "are we grabbing Chinese this week or Mexican or ordering pizza?"

I recommend checking out the players handbook 2 for ideas and sayings. I seem to remember reading under the clerics section about phrases like "Pelors grace shine upon you" or Pelors light shall burn the wickedness from your flesh.
You can come up with alot on your own too.
Bless is a simple "Silvanus we ask your blessing to be with us now.
divine favor- "Mystra grant me your divine favor as testament to YOUR will"
Shield of Faith- "Velsharoon protect me, let my faith in you shield me from harm"
Magic stone-" Silvanus let your power infuse these stones to better serve me as I serve your will"

I always encourage role play but remember your DM has to keep the game at a certain pace so please be mindful of that. also take a look at your group if someone with truly deep religious convictions looks uncomfortable it might be best to not do this too many times.

Other than that I'm looking forward to seeing some good RP ideas on here.


those are nice. we are leveling quickly in this game we are already level 7. unfortunately I may have lost my sayings that I made from this same game series. so I have not been using them. I am very combat oriented so I don't cast very many spells though I just got access to divine power. and items are plentiful

Things like this are impressive for those awesome spells you use once in a blue moon.

They get tired very quickly however, when you are using a wand of cure light wounds for the 30th time that session.
