\begin{basicmove}{Deity}
  You serve and worship some deity or power which grants you
  spells. Give your god a name (maybe Helferth, Sucellus, Zorica or
  Krugon the Bleak) and choose your deity’s domain:

% this is one of the grosser ones: it'd be nice to have a generic way
% of solving this

  \item Bloody Conquest
  \item Civilization

  \columnbreak
  \begin{choices}
  \item Knowledge and Secrets
  \item The Downtrodden
  \item What Lies Beneath
  \end{choices}
\end{multicols}

Choose one precept of your religion:
\begin{choices}
\item Your religion preaches the sanctity of suffering, add Petition:
  Suffering
\item Your religion is cultish and insular, add Petition: Gaining
  Secrets
\item Your religion has important sacrificial rites, add Petition:
  Offering
\item Your religion believes in trial by combat, add Petition:
  Personal Victory
\end{choices}
\end{basicmove}

\begin{basicmove}{Divine Guidance}
  When you \condition{petition your deity according to the precept of
    your religion}, you are granted some useful knowledge or boon
  related to your deity’s domain. The GM will tell you what.
\end{basicmove}

\begin{basicmove}{Turn Undead}
  When you \condition{hold your holy symbol aloft and call on your
    deity for protection}, roll +WIS. \onHit, so long as you continue
  to pray and brandish your holy symbol, no undead may come within
  reach of you. \onSuccess, you also momentarily daze intelligent
  undead and cause mindless undead to flee. Aggression breaks the
  effects and they are able to act as normal. Intelligent undead may
  still find ways to harry you from afar. They’re clever like that.
\end{basicmove}

\begin{basicmove}{Commune}
  When you \condition{spend uninterrupted time (an hour or so) in
    quiet communion with your deity}, you:

  \begin{itemize}
  \item Lose any spells already granted to you.
  \item Are granted new spells of your choice whose total levels don’t
    exceed your own level+1, and none of which is a higher level than
    your own level.
  \item Prepare all of your rotes, which never count against your
    limit.
  \end{itemize}
\end{basicmove}

\begin{basicmove}{Cast a Spell}

  When you \condition{unleash a spell granted to you by your deity},
  roll+WIS. \onSuccess, the spell is successfully cast and your
  deity does not revoke the spell, so you may cast it
  again. \onPartial, the spell is cast, but choose one:

  \begin{itemize}
  \item You draw unwelcome attention or put yourself in a spot. The GM
    will tell you how.
  \item Your casting distances you from your deity---take -1 ongoing
    to cast a spell until the next time you \move{Commune}.
  \item After you cast it, the spell is revoked by your deity. You
    cannot cast the spell again until you \move{Commune} and have it
    granted to you.
  \end{itemize}

  Note that maintaining spells with ongoing effects will sometimes
  cause a penalty to your roll to cast a spell.

  \begin{aspell}{Light}{}
    An item you touch glows with divine light, about as bright as a
    torch. It gives off no heat or sound and requires no fuel but is
    otherwise like a mundane torch.  You have complete control of the

    spoilage.

  \begin{aspell}{Guidance}{}
    The symbol of your deity appears before you and gestures towards

  \begin{aspell}{Cure Light Wounds}{}
    At your touch wounds scab and bones cease to ache. Heal an ally
    you touch of 1d8 damage.
  \end{aspell}

  \begin{aspell}{Detect Alignment}{}
    When you cast this spell choose an alignment: Good, Evil, Lawful,

    alignment. The GM will tell you what here is of that alignment.

  \begin{aspell}{Cause Fear}{Ongoing}
    Choose a target you can see and a nearby object. The target is
    afraid of the object so long as you maintain the spell. Their
    reaction is up to them: flee, panic, beg, fight. While this spell

    with less than animal intelligence (magical constructs, undead,
    automatons, and the like).

  \begin{aspell}{Sanctuary}{}
    As you cast this spell, you walk the perimeter of an area,
    consecrating it to your deity. As long as you stay within that
    area you are alerted whenever someone acts with malice within the
    sanctuary (including entering with harmful intent).  Anyone who
    receives healing within a sanctuary heals +1d4 HP.

\widebanner{Third Level Spells}
\begin{multicols}{2}
  \begin{aspell}{Animate Dead}{Ongoing}
    You invoke a hungry spirit to possess a recently-dead body and
    serve you. This creates a zombie that follows your orders to the
    best of its limited abilities. Treat the zombie as a character,
    but with access to only the basic moves. It has a +1 modifier for
    all stats and 1 HP. The zombie also gets your choice of 1d4 of
    these traits:
    \begin{itemize}
    \item It’s talented. Give one stat a +2 modifier.
    \item It’s durable. It has +2 HP for each level you have.
    \item It has a functioning brain and can complete complex tasks.
    \item It does not appear obviously dead, at least for a day or
      two.
    \end{itemize}
    The zombie lasts until it is destroyed by taking damage in excess
    of its HP, or until you end the spell. While this spell is ongoing
    you take -1 to cast a spell.

  \begin{aspell}{Resurrection}{}
    Tell the GM you would like to resurrect a corpse whose soul has
    not yet fully departed this world. Resurrection is always
    possible, but the GM will give you one or more (possibly all) of
    these conditions to fulfill:
    \begin{itemize}
    \item It’s going to take days/weeks/months
    \item You must get help from \hrulefill
    \item It will require a lot of money
    \item You must sacrifice \hrulefill\ to do it
    \end{itemize}
    The GM may, depending on the circumstances, allow you to resurrect
    the corpse now, with the understanding that the conditions must be
    met before it’s permanent, or require you to meet the conditions
    before the corpse is resurrected.
  \end{aspell}

  \begin{aspell}{Hold Person}{}
    Choose a person you can see. Until you cast a spell or leave their

  With a touch you speak to the spirits within things. The non-living
  object you touch answers three questions you pose, as best it can.

\begin{aspell}{True Seeing}{Ongoing}
  Your vision is opened to the true nature of everything you lay your
  eyes on. You pierce illusions and see things that have been
  hidden. The GM will describe the area before you ignoring any
  illusions and falsehoods, magical or otherwise.  While this spell is
  ongoing you take -1 to cast a spell.

\begin{aspell}{Trap Soul}{}
  You trap the soul of a dying creature within a gem. The trapped

\begin{aspell}{Sever}{Ongoing}
  Choose an appendage on the target such as an arm, tentacle, or
  wing. The appendage is magically severed from their body, causing no
  damage but considerable pain. Missing an appendage may, for example,
  keep a winged creature from flying, or a bull from goring you on its
  horns. While this spell is ongoing you take -1 to cast a spell.

\begin{aspell}{Mark of Death}{}
  Choose a creature whose true name you know. This spell creates
  permanent runes on a target surface that will kill that creature,

\begin{aspell}{Repair}{}
  Choose one event in the target’s past. All effects of that event,

  magical effects are ended.

\begin{aspell}{Divine Presence}{Ongoing}
  Every creature must ask your leave to enter your presence, and you

  Name a city, town, encampment, or other place where people live. As
