This spell employs magic to deflect psionic attacks against the priest. For the duration of the spell, any being directing a psionic attack at the caster must first make a successful saving throw vs. spell. Success means the psionic attack proceeds normally. Failure means, the attack is shifted to take effect against another being within 30 feet of the priest, other than the original attacker. If no suitable individual is in this range the attack proceeds normally against the priest.
If the psionic attack can be deflected to more than one individual, the one affected is determined by the following priorities: 1) the most PSPs, 2) the highest Intelligence score, and 3) a random die roll. Neither priest nor the attacker has any control over the target of the deflected attack.
The material component is the priest's holy symbol.
Notes: Granted by the duergar goddess Deep Duerra.
