Available to PAL 3+, CLE 12+ of Saint Ygg

Sacrifice a Risk Die. If it doesn't come up '1', your shield floats free of your grasp and flies about you magically at high speed, improving your AC two points further than the equipped shield normally imparts. You gain DR 3 that stacks with any other DR you already possess. The duration is one round per each cleric and paladin level. You must, minimally, be a first level cleric of St. Ygg to gain and use this heroic deed. The DR and AC improvement from this deed will stack with any other bonuses. However, you may not benefit from more than one instance of this deed at one time. Should the duration of combat make it desirable, you may sacrifice another Risk Die to prolong the duration — at just the moment the effect would normally end. Doing so prevents interruption in the protection and does not require a roll of the sacrificed Risk Die.

Ygg (Saint Ygg) God of Righteousness Lawful Good Symbol: A red cross on a white field

St. Ygg is the deity of righteousness and light. St. Ygg believes in the highest moral standards. He is sanctimonious and has an indignant temper with those who fail to see the just nature of his actions. The faith of St. Ygg is the most well known of the new organized religions in the Southern and Northern Reaches. The central-southern district, known as Middenmark, was ceded to the faith of St. Ygg in order to extend their faith and bring order to the region.

The Red Temple in Eastdale is the epicenter of St. Ygg's faith in The Prelacy. His followers include clerics and a small group of paladins known as the Order of the Crimson Cross. They are based out of Threshold and have a small detachment stationed in Eastdale. Paladins are, generally speaking, extremely rare in the Reaches. Templars of the order are known as Red Bannermen. These are militant clerics but they do not have paladinic powers.

The Shrine of St.Ygg, in particular, has been successful in establishing a small religious following. Brother Othar (Level 5 Cleric), and his under-clerics Cella (Level 2 Cleric) and Gamdar (Level 2 Half-Orc Cleric), oversee the shrine and tend to the needs of the villagers regardless of their faith.
