Crusader

Sphere: War
Regency: 5 Req'd Holding: 4
Gold: 5 Character Level: 10
Duration: Special

This spell is restricted to priests of Haelyn and allows the priest to transform a current unit into a special unit known as a Crusader. The transformed unit gains +2 to attack, and never has to check for morale. The priest must travel with the unit at all times for it to maintain these values. If he leaves the unit it loses all bonuses gained, and reverts to its former stats.
This spell was first cast by Lavalan Briesen of the Orthodox Imperial Temple of Haelyn. The spell casting costs 5 GB. This money is spent on the forging of special medallions to be worn by all members of the unit that is the focus of the spell, and the burning of rare incenses during the final stage of the casting, which involves all the soldiers from the army unit listening to the priest give a long and inflammatory speech to inflame their passions and convert them into crusaders.
