-'''Protection from Malevolence, 15 ft. radius''' is a spell that bestows a protective bonus to the recipient's [[Armour Class|armour class]], as well as all others within a 3 [[Combat Hex|combat hex]] distance of the caster, to those of the caster's faith. This bonus applies against physical [[Attacking in Combat|attacks]], whether by [[Weapons List|weapon]] or [[Missile Weapons|missile]], against creatures wishing to cause harm maliciously. The benefit is not accrued against defenders who bear no ill will while being attacked — though this stipulation cannot be made to apply to any creature who, by nature, instinctively wish harm to the recipient, regardless of who began the combat.

-The benefit is a +2 benefit to the recipient's armour class against weapons, with a +4 benefit against bodily attacks. This bonus is gained against non-intelligent creatures or those of low intelligence that attack by instinct, such as various animal predators. To be exempt from the spell, the attacked must be genuinely put upon — this suspends the effect of the spell when the recipient is the malevolent perpetrator of violence, not the defender.

 Naturally, this assures that numerous creatures that are prone to evil, such as [[Undead|undead]] or creatures from the various underworlds, may be safely identified as "malevolent." Likewise, in a [[War|war]] that is being fought against an enemy, where that enemy is as bent upon winning the battle as the character employing the spell, that the spell functions as desired.
