Rebuke undead forces the undead to flee your presence. A rebuke attempt is performed by rolling a d20 + charisma modifier. Take the result and compare it to the table below to know the highest HD of undead that can be affected.
Rebuke Check Result | Most powerful Undead effected |
---|---|
0 | Character HD -4 |
1-3 | Character HD -3 |
4-6 | Character HD -2 |
7-9 | Character HD -1 |
10-12 | Character HD |
13-15 | Character HD +1 |
16-18 | Character HD +2 |
19-21 | Character HD +3 |
22+ | Character HD +4 |
After getting your result, roll 2d6 + character HD + charisma modifier to determine the maximum number of Undead HD affected. The nearest undead will flee for 1 minute and the effect radiates outward to the next closest after that until the affected HD is used up. If a cleric moves within 10 feet of an affected undead, the turn is overcome and the undead acts normally. Note -- if a cleric has twice as many HD as an affected undead, that undead will be completely destroyed instead of fleeing.
Special: If a good or neutral character becomes evil, this ability can be replaced with control undead should they go through an atonement ritual.
