  耶各[Jergal](读作JER-gull),万物终结之主[Lord of the End of Everything],他负责记录所有亡者灵魂的最终下场。他是位致力于维系死亡秩序的、秉持宿命论的送葬人,他预见到了永恒并侵蚀着所有事物生命的终结。耶各致力于对这个世界缓步陷入死亡的命运进行有序之记述。除了个别研究远古历史的贤者外,甚至几乎没有凡人了解耶各的存在。
Jergal(JER-gull),Lord of the End of Everything,is responsible for keeping records on the final disposition of all the spirits of the dead. He is the fatalistic undertaker who strives for order in death,anticipating the ever-encroaching termination of all things living. Jergal strives for an orderly accounting of the fate of the world as it slowly sinks into death. Few mortals are even aware of Jergal's existence except for a few sages studying ancient history.

  耶各是米尔寇[Myrkul]之前的一任死亡之主[Lord of the Dead],虽然在许多个世纪前,他显然是自愿地将这个位置让渡给了白骨之主[the Lord of Bones]。一些贤者相信耶各在那时同样握有巴尔[Bhaal]和班恩[Bane]的神职,并被幸存的耐瑟瑞尔人[the Netherese]作为纳卡撒[Nakasr]来崇敬。在下台后,耶各成为了骸骨城堡的管家[the Seneschal of Bone Castle],协助米尔寇履行他的职责。在过去的若干世纪里,耶各变成了被遗忘者[the Forgotten One],淡入了米尔寇的影子。
Jergal was Myrkul's predecessor as Lord of the Dead,although he apparently voluntarily relinquished that position to the Lord of Bones many centuries ago. Some sages believe Jergal held the portfolios of Bhaal and Bane at that time,as well,and was venerated as Nakasr by the Netherese survivor states. After stepping down from his position,Jergal became the Seneschal of Bone Castle,assisting Myrkul in the execution of his duties. In the intervening centuries,Jergal has become the Forgotten One and faded into Myrkul's shadow.

  耶各未在动荡之年[the Time of Troubles]中扮演任何角色,不过当希瑞克[Cyric]接替米尔寇成为死亡之主时,这位宿命的抄录者[Scribe of the Doomed]继续担任着骸骨城堡的管家[the Seneschal of Bone Castle]。耶各超越常理的本质令其绝对忠诚于当前的死亡之主,而不管是谁拥有那个职务。然而,从耶各在希瑞克任期时的行为来看,虽然耶各毫无疑问地完全忠于死亡之主这个职务,但如果在任者未能忠于这一岗位的职责,他会在暗中灵活而巧妙地颠覆现任在职者。
Jergal played no part in the Time of Troubles,but when Cyric succeeded Myrkul as Lord of the Dead,the Scribe of the Doomed continued to serve as the Seneschal of Bone Castle. A core component of his very being makes Jergal absolutely loyal to the current Lord of the Dead,regardless of who holds that office. From Jergal's actions during Cyric's tenure,however,it is apparent that while Jergal is utterly loyal to the office of Lord of the Dead,he does have the freedom to subtly undermine the current officeholder if she or he is not true to the position's responsibilities.

  耶各似乎认为与新任的死亡之主凯兰沃[Kelemvor]一道工作远比与其他人更令自己满意。通过保持对所有进入水晶塔[the Crystal Spire]——凯兰沃建立在骸骨城堡废墟上的新寓所——人员的详细记录,被遗忘者作为管家侍奉着死亡审判官[the Judge of the Damned]。耶各有可能将在对凯兰沃的服务中恢复他过去的一些声望,但有同样的可能性,水晶塔的管家[the Seneschal of the Crystal Spire]将在成功为他的旧职务找到合适的继承者后,让他的自我进入死亡。不管如何,除了记录它们的最终命运外,宿命的抄录者对于生命几乎没有明显的兴趣。
Jergal seems to find working with Kelemvor,the new Lord of the Dead,much more to his personal satisfaction. The Forgotten One serves the Judge of the Damned as seneschal by maintaining careful records of all who enter the Crystal Spire,Kelemvor's new abode built on the rubble of the Bone Castle. It is possible that Jergal will regain some of his former prominence serving Kelemvor,but it is equally likely that the Seneschal of the Crystal Spire will pass on into death himself,having found a suitable successor to his old position. Regardless,the Scribe of the Doomed has little apparent interest in the living save for recording their final fates.

  耶各依然保持着起源于耐瑟瑞尔帝国鼎盛时期的、对消逝已久的阿曼纳塔[Amaunator]的好感,他重视这位远古太阳神对法律和秩序的固守,不过除了凯兰沃之外,他几乎没有盟友,甚至没有朋友。在希瑞经[the Cyrinishad]狂灾事件后,耶各对希瑞克,这位前任死亡之主只剩不屑一顾,他视其为让宇宙的秩序瓦解的绝罚。在维沙伦[Velsharoon]擢升神性之后,为了与“死灵师”[the Necromancer]所致力的、延长生命转化为不死和阻碍诸国度[the Realms]有序的死亡进程的行为进行斗争,耶各在诸国度付出了大量努力。
Jergal retains a fondness from Netheril's heyday for the long-vanished Amaunator,valuing that ancient sun god's adherence to law and order,but he otherwise has few allies aside from Kelemvor,and even fewer friends. Following the events of the Cyrinishad debacle,Jergal has nothing but scorn for Cyric,the former Lord of the Dead,considering him anathema to the orderly dissolution of the universe. In the aftermath of Velsharoon's divine ascendance,Jergal spends much of his efforts in the Realms combating the Necromancer's efforts to prolong life into undeath and to thwart the orderly procession of death in the Realms.

  耶各从不恼怒,话音总是虚无而冰冷,仿若被长久遗忘的地穴中干枯低语的回音。他的语气与言辞总是冷漠而宿命主义,而他的举止总是保持着极度刻板的礼节。大部分凡人发现被遗忘者有着阴影般、不祥的身形,尾随着他留下的是一种不安和衰弱的模糊感觉。耶各完全地专注于死亡,并将生命理解为死亡的永恒之前的短暂存在。有个别吟游诗人注意到:耶各的哲学理念和行为,类似于一位在其迫在眉睫的死亡来临之前、试图整理好自己的事务与账目的凡人。
Jergal never angers,and always speaks with a disembodied,chilling voice that echoes with the dry whisper of a long forgotten crypt. His tone is always bland,his words fatalistic,and his demeanor excessively formal. Most mortals find the Forgotten One a shadowy,sinister figure who leaves a vague feeling of unease and enervation in his wake. Jergal is totally focused on death and perceives life as momentary existence before death's eternity. A few bards have noted that Jergal's philosophy and actions resemble a mortal attempting to tidy up his affairs and accounts before his imminent death.

  在其宗教艺术中,这位怪物般抄写员的相貌被描绘为一张平滑的灰色面孔,唯一的面部特征是一对鼓起的黄色眼睛。他的身体除了一件被不可见的风扑打着涨落、充满阴影的斗篷外,只有一片虚无,他戴着的白色手套被无形的手掌和手臂支撑着。
This monstrous scribe is depicted in his religion's art as a smooth gray face holding no features other than a pair of bulging yellow eyes. His body is nothing but a shadow-filled gray cloak which rises and falls as if buffeted by an unseen wind,and he wears white gloves that are supported by invisible hands and arms.

耶各的化身Jergal's Avatar
  (牧师Cleric 25,死灵师Necromancer 18)

  耶各展现为一具某些远古外星种族的、枯萎脆弱的木乃伊。他的皮肤是灰色的,紧紧地绘制出了他的骨架。他球根状、死气沉沉的黄色眼睛和昆虫般的下颌,类似于类人和螳螂之间的混合。他的耳朵和鼻子几乎无法从他伸长的头骨上区分开。他的大部分身体都覆盖着一袭完全不透光的斗篷,似乎在吸收笼罩着它的空气。他的白色手套覆盖了细长、利爪般的手和前臂。他的手上,总是紧握着着厚实的卷轴,上面覆盖着错综复杂、无法理解的手迹,以及一支新蘸墨的羽毛笔。耶各从共通、星界、守序、战斗、预言、元素、守卫、死灵、保护、思想、时间、旅者、战争、结界、气候领域,以及除了幻术/幻象和附魔/魅惑外所有学派的获得法术。他只能逆向地访问动物、创造、治疗以及植物领域,不过他能、且只能对他的神职人员使用来自治疗领域的增益法术。
Jergal appears as a wizened,insubstantial mummy of some ancient,alien race. His skin is gray and tightly drawn across his frame. His bulbous,yellow,lifeless eyes and insectoid mandibles resemble a cross between a humanoid and a preying mantis. His ears and nose are barely distinguishable from his elongated skull. Most of his body is covered with an utterly lightless cloak that seems to absorb the very atmosphere that envelops it. His white gloves cover elongated,claw-like hands and forearms. He always clutches a thick scroll covered with intricate,incomprehensible script and a freshly inked quill in his hands. Jergal draws his spells from the spheres of all,astral,law,combat,divination,elemental,guardian,necromantic,protection,thought,time,travelers,war,wards,and weather and from all schools except illusion/phantasm and enchantment/charm. He has reversed access only to the spheres of animal,creation,healing,and plant,though he is able to use the positive spells from the healing sphere on his clergy only.

  特殊攻击/防御Special Att/Def:耶各从不装备武器。他任何一只手的触碰将在正常伤害上附加造成弱能术(如同同名4级法师法术)。如果在同一轮他的双手都成功命中,在正常效果外,他还将会把受害者拖入他的非物质身体内,对不幸的受害者造成吸能术[energy drain](如同同名9级法师法术)。耶各的斗篷外侧本身是一道通向负能量位面[the Negative Energy Plane]的异界之门[gate],所有触碰了他的斗篷者必须成功通过一次-3罚值的即死魔法豁免,否则将被吸入那个完全虚无与死亡的位面。
Special Att/Def:Jergal never wields a weapon. The touch of either hand causes enervation(as the 4th-level wizard spell of the same name) in addition to his normal damage. If he successfully hits with both hands in the same round,in addition to the normal effects,he draws the victim through his noncorporeal body,inflicting an energy drain on the unfortunate victim(as the 9th-level wizard spell of the same name). The outer side of Jergal's cloak is itself a gate to the Negative Energy Plane,and anyone touching his mantle must succeed at a saving throw vs.death magic at a -3 penalty or be sucked into that plane of absolute nothingness and die.

  在单一轮内,无视任何魔抗或灵能防御,通过窥视某个存在的脸,耶各便能读取到它生命与死亡的整张绘卷,然后将它提炼为简单的表达方式。在这一探查过程中,该存在是完全无助和彻底麻痹的。在该生物的感知中,这种接触犹如某种冰冷且惨无人道的事物、滑行着贯穿了心灵并钻进了任何记忆。而单单通过在他浩繁的长卷上刻写下凡人的名字,耶各就能立即对目标施加宿命的死亡。这样的受害者必须通过一次-2惩罚的对抗法术豁免检定,否则将提前迎来死亡的时刻。在此之后,他们会被永远流放到他们的死后归宿,而不能被唤起或复活。
In a single round,Jergal can,by looking into a being's face,read the entire tapestry of its life and death,regardless of any magical protections or psionic defenses,and then distill it to its simplest expression. During this probe,a being is utterly helpless and completely paralyzed. This extrasensory touch is perceived as something cold and inhuman slithering across the mind and burrowing into every memory. Simply by inscribing a mortals name on his voluminous scroll,Jergal can inflict the target's fated demise immediately upon it. Such victims must make a successful saving throw vs. spell at a -2 penalty or be transported forward in time to the moment of their death. Thereafter,they are relegated to the afterlife for eternity,and may never be raised or resurrected.

其它显现Other Manifestation

  耶各能使用任何不死生物的形态,并在这样做时获得这个形态的所有固有能力。假若他所选取的形态没有与这些攻击相同或超越的攻击方式,他也将保留他的弱能术和吸能术攻击。他也能采取有着大白胡子的凡人男性形象,因极其年老而弯腰、但仍然保有着智慧,而在他凹陷的眼睛里仍然活力。耶各的首选显现是沉重的巨著以冰冷的结局合上的声音。该显现通常出现于异常长寿的凡人逝世时,尤其他或她利用了长寿药剂[potions of longevity]或类似魔法手段延续生命——譬如大奥术师的魔法——来延续生命时。
Jergal can take the form of any undead creature,gaining all its innate abilities in doing so. He also retains his enervation and energy drain attacks,provided that they are not equaled or surpassed by the form he has taken. He can also take the form of a mortal man with a great white beard,bent with extreme age yet holding intelligence and a driving energy within his sunken eyes. Jergal's preferred manifestation is the sound of a heavy tome being closed with chilling finality. This manifestation often occurs upon the death of an exceptionally long-lived mortal,particularly one who has extended his or her life with potions of longevity and like magical manipulations—such as the magic of an archwizard.

  耶各被种类繁多的、在不同文化中被视为死亡的预兆的生物服侍着。例如,在安奥罗克[Anauroch]沙漠,大白胡子的秃鹫被称为纳'撒[N'asr]的孩子(通常被认为服侍着纳'撒,希瑞克的一个别名),拜耶各所赐将灵魂摆渡到到来世他们命中注定的国度。万物终结之主也借由各种各样与负能量位面相关的不死种类施加影响力,譬如匍行幽影[slow shadow]、幽灵[spectre]、缚灵[wraith]和三叶游灵[trilloch]、游魂[wastrel]、以及负能灵怪[xeg-yi]。自从凯兰沃担任死亡之主职位后,耶各在一定程度上不再突出与削弱能量的不死生物的隶属关系,但当使用它们能最有效地完成、他的上级摆在他面前的任务时,他仍然非常乐意呼唤它们——他仅仅是在向凯兰沃呈报时不详述对它们的使用。
Jergal is served by a wide variety of creatures seen as a harbingers of death in various cultures. For example,in Anauroch,the great white-bearded vultures known as N'asr's children(commonly thought to serve N'asr,an alias of Cyric) ferry spirits into the afterlife to their preordained realms at Jergal's bequest. The Lord at the End of Everything also exerts his influence through a variety of undead tied to the Negative Energy Plane,such as slow shadows,spectres,and wraiths as well as trillochs,wastrels,and xeg-yi. Jergal has somewhat de-emphasized his affiliation with undead that sap energy since Kelemvor's assumption of the position of Lord of the Dead,but he still is not reluctant to call upon them when their use most efficiently accomplishes a task his superior has set before him—he merely does not dwell upon their use when reporting to Kelemvor.

All clerics,specialty priests,and monks of Jergal receive religion(Faerûnian) as a bonus nonweapon proficiency.

  耶各只有一小撮活着的崇拜者,但据信有几十个他的祭司作为木乃伊和高等木乃伊幸存于尘封已久的墓穴中。这些木乃伊仍然拥有他们活着时的智慧,并能施展祭司法术。虽然大部分是守序邪恶阵营,但有些受眷的个体倾向于更严格的守序中立道德观。
Jergal has only a handful of living worshipers,but it is believed several score of his priests still survive as mummies and greater mummies in long-sealed tombs. These mummies still possess their living intelligence and can cast priest spells. While most are lawful evil in alignment,some favored few tend toward a stricter lawful neutral ethos.

  从历史观点来说,耶各的祭司们仅存在于非常守序和军国主义的社会中,这些社会不崇敬迪奈[Deneir]或任何善神。除了作为抄写员、殡葬工人和殡仪业者外,耶各的祭司们还为他们服侍的国王和统治者保存着出生、死亡以及税赋的详细记录。耶各被这类社会视为死亡毫无怜悯的管家,在每个凡人命定的时间拜访他们,并在身后将他们传送到恰当的国度。
Priests of Jergal existed historically only in very lawful and militaristic societies which did not venerate Deneir or any of the goodly gods. In addition to serving as scribes,funerary workers,and morticians,Jergal's priests kept careful records of births,deaths,and taxes for the kings and rulers they served. Jergal was perceived in such societies as a compassionless steward of death who would visit each mortal at their appointed time and transport them to the appropriate realm in the afterlife.

  耶各数量稀少的神殿通常是毫无生气的石墓、或干燥、布满尘埃的地下室。在这些沉闷、阴郁、无尽苦役的房间里,动植物绝不会活得长久。在耶各布满灰尘的神殿中每日辛劳的有知觉者,将迅速地苍老和虚弱,然而在他们在命定的时间到来前绝不会死去,他们被注定一生都犹如衰年之人。这些神龛罕见的访问者们,将发现排成长排的抄写员忠实尽责地记录着周围地区的事务和短命凡人们的命运。
Jergal's few temples are typically lifeless stone mausoleums or dry,dusty crypts. Animals and plants never live long in these dreary,bleak houses of endless drudgery. Sentients who toil daily in Jergal's dusty temples quickly age and grow weak,yet never die before their appointed time,dooming them to a life of venerability. Rare visitors to such shrines find long rows of scribes dutifully recording the affairs and fates of the short-lived mortals in the surrounding lands.

  耶各的神职人员被称作末日的公证者[the Scriveners of Doom]。在他们的阶层中,各个神殿的高阶祭司被称作末日的首席公证者[First Scrivener of Doom],但除此之外,该信仰并无其他职称或头衔。该信仰总是均匀分为牧师、武僧、以及被称为末日抄写员[doomscribes]的专属祭司。
The clergy of Jergal are known as the Scriveners of Doom. Within their ranks,the high priest of each temple is known as First Scrivener of Doom,but otherwise the faith eschews titles or ranks. The faith has always been evenly split between clerics,monks,and specialty priests,known as doomscribes.

教义Dogma:
  每个存在都有属于它的永恒安息之地,那个地方是在他或她被创造的瞬间选中的。生命便是一段寻找那地方与永恒的安息的过程。力量、成功、快乐,虚弱、失败、痛苦,都是一般的短暂。唯有死亡是绝对的真理,而它只会在命定的时刻降临。(汝应)寻求将秩序带给生之混乱,只因在死中能找到终结与稳定之态。(汝应)为死亡做好准备,因为它触手可及、从不让步。而只有当服务于世界的死亡这项更伟大的事业时,生命才应该被延长。不死生物状态不是一种逃避,或者一种奖励;它仅仅是那个别被选中者服侍万物终结之主者的责任。
Dogma:Each being has an eternal resting place that is chosen for him or her at the moment of creation. Life is a process of seeking that place and eternal rest. Existence is but a brief aberration in an eternity of death. Power,success,and joy are as transitory as weakness,failure,and misery. Only death is absolute,and then only at its appointed hour. Seek to bring order to the chaos of life,for in death there is finality and a fixedness of state. Be ready for death for it is at hand and uncompromising. Life should be prolonged only when it serves the greater cause of the death of the world. Undeath is not an escape or a reward;it is simply a duty of a chosen few who serve the Lord of the End of Everything.

日常活动Day-to-Day Activities:
  木乃伊状态的末日的公证人是被选中的祭司,他们被选中继续服侍他们的主,他们的永恒安息因此被延迟、来为亡者的处置带来秩序和规章。被埋葬于遗忘已久的地穴中,他们被僵尸和骷髅服侍着,但其中绝不会存在有智慧的不死生物。亿万年来,耶各向他的木乃伊神职人员们低语着一段名字与命运的永无止境的连祷,木乃伊们随后将它们记录在卷轴上,这项工作将直至耶各赐予他们永恒的安息。据说,当世界最终停止和消逝时,最后一位末日的公证人木乃伊将搁下它的笔、化作尘埃。而对于那些闯入他们布满尘埃的牧师者,这些不死的祭司们有时会发起攻击,有时则会予以无视,这取决于这些人中是否有已经到了命定的死期者。他们总是会试图赶走(如果有必要地话则是摧毁)任何扰乱了他们神圣任务者,因为对于该信仰的教导而言,死亡的秩序和死亡本身一样的重要。
Day-to-Day Activities:Mummified Scriveners of Doom are chosen priests who continue to serve their lord by delaying their eternal rest to bring order and regulation to the disposition of the dead. Buried in long-forgotten crypts,they do nothing but scribe the fate of all things living on cracked parchments. Some are served by zombies and skeletons,but never by sentient undead. For eons Jergal has whispered to his mummified clergy an unending litany of names and fates that they then dutifully record on scrolls until Jergal grants them eternal rest. It is said that when the world finally grinds to a halt and passes away,the last mummified Scrivener of Doom will lay down its pen and crumble to dust. Such undead priests sometimes attack and sometimes ignore interlopers who invade their dusty tombs,depending upon whether or not such beings have reached their appointed hour of death. They always attempt to drive off and if necessary destroy any being who disturbs their sacred tasks,since order in death is as important as death itself in the teachings of the faith.

  在这个小型教派里,有生命的末日的公证人整日在维护和续写大量卷轴档案(这些档案记录着有知觉者的状态),直到迎来他们的职责消逝、到达他们死后的目的地。不顾他们任务的近于无望,他们无畏地艰苦工作,知道自己有亿万年的时间去完成被赋予的任务。在塞尔[Thay](相较于诸国度的其他地方,在那渺小的耶各教派比较突出),大部分耶各的神职人员成员被个别的首席[Zulkirs]或红袍法师[Red Wizards]雇佣来监管他们奴隶的记录。在履行这项对社会必要的任务之余,这也赋予了抄写员们至关重要的机会,以获取数量庞大智慧生物们的详细细节。
The small cult of living Scriveners of Doom spend their days maintaining and extending vast archives of scrolls listing how sentients under their purview passed away and their destination in the afterlife. Despite their near hopeless task,they toil on undaunted,knowing they have eons to complete their appointed task. In Thay,where the tiny cult of Jergal is relatively prominent compared to elsewhere in the Realms,most members of Jergal's clergy are employed by individual Zulkirs or Red Wizards to oversee their slave records. In addition to fulfilling a necessary task for society,this gives the scribes crucial access to records detailing large numbers of sentient beings.

圣日/重要仪式Holy Days/Important Ceremonies:
  耶各的信仰对圣日或宗教仪式几乎没有耐心或需要,将它们视为不必要的消遣。有个耶各祭司所必需的小仪式被称作印封仪[the Sealing]。在记录各个或每个生物的死、死因和死后的目的地后,末日的公证人必须撒一点灰烬和骨粉的尘埃到他们刻下的字上以玷污墨水,并以此标记朝着世界终末又近了一小步。
Holy Days/Important Ceremonies:Jergal's faithful have little patience or need for holy days or religious ceremonies,viewing them as unnecessary distractions. The one small ritual Jergal's priests are required to perform is called the Sealing. After recording each and every creature's demise,form of death,and destination in the afterlife,Scriveners of Doom are required to sprinkle a light dusting of ash and powdered bone over their inscribed words to blot the ink and mark another small step toward the world's end.

  在每年的最后一个夜晚,岁末之月[Nightal]的第30天,耶各的神职人员将停止他们永无止尽的苦役一整晚。在这个被称作又一年之夜[the Night of Another Year]的神圣夜晚,祭司们阅读着他们在过去一年、仔细写在卷轴上的每个逝去者的名字。伴随着一阵“一年终结了![One Year Closer!]”的哭喊,所有的卷轴将在随后被燃烧,而工作将重新开始。
On the last night of the year,the 30th of Nightal,Jergal's clergy cease their endless toil for a full night. On this holy night,known as the Night of Another Year,the priests read every name whose death they have recorded from the scrolls they have carefully inscribed over the past year. With a cry of “One Year Closer!”,all the scrolls are then burned,and work begins anew.

主要崇拜中心Major Centers of Worship:
  在死亡是日常事务的塞尔,耶各的教派经历了一次小的复兴。濒死地穴[The Crypt of Imminent Death]位于拜占图[Bezantur]城,塞尔,是一座洋葱形圆顶的、金脉黑大理石建筑。黛娜·哲伯伦[Dyhna Zhyborrin](这座神殿的女主),负责监管神殿的小规模职员、领导城中的崇拜服务、以及保持与凯兰沃的神职人员与崇拜者的联系。被遗忘者的教派徒们在整个塞尔旅行着,将死亡记入地穴的图书馆的史册中。
Major Centers of Worship:Jergal's cult has undergone a small renaissance in Thay where death is a daily fact of life. The Crypt of Imminent Death in Bezantur,Thay,is a small onion-domed structure of gold-veined black marble. Dyhna Zhyborrin,the temple's mistress,oversees the temple's small staff,leads worship services in the city,and maintains close ties with the clergy and worshipers of Kelemvor. Cultists of the Forgotten One journey throughout Thay recording deaths for the annals of the Crypt library.

  位于边境王国[the Border Kingdoms]的至高橡树男爵领[the Barony of Great Oak]的神行堡[Godswalk Keep],已经同时成为了一处凯兰沃教会和耶各零散教徒们的圣地。在三神会面[the Meeting of the Three](也被称为大呼啸[the Howling])发生期间,“战神[the War God]”伽拉苟斯[Garagos]、舞蹈女士[the Dancing Lady](夏芮丝[Sharess])、以及被遗忘者(耶各)全都漫游于这座古老的城堡。耶各似乎漫无目的地漫步在废墟中,无视了伽拉苟斯的攻击和舞蹈女士迷人的微笑。
Godswalk Keep in the Barony of Great Oak in the Border Kingdoms region has become a sacred site for a the church of Kelemvor as well as the scattered cultists of Jergal. The Meeting of the Three(also known as the Howling) happens at certain times during the year when Garagos the War God,the Dancing Lady(Sharess),and the Forgotten One(Jergal) all wander through the ancient castle. Jergal seems to wander the ruins aimlessly,ignoring Garagos's attacks and the Dancing Lady's alluring smile.

从属组织Affiliated Orders:
  耶各教派[Jergali]的教会已变得极小,而它不再认为需要从事作战的信仰分支或从属组织。无论耶各的神职人员是否参与了这个过程,所有的生物都将死于它们命定的时间,所以末日的公证人们整日操劳于更重要的任务——记录死者的命运,而非是主动将死亡施加给他们。
Affiliated Orders:The Jergali church has grown exceedingly small,and it no longer sees a need for a fighting branch of the faith or other affiliated orders. All creatures shall die at their appointed time whether or not the clergy of Jergal assists in that process or not,so the Scriveners of Doom spend their days toiling at the more important task of recording the fates of the dead rather then actively delivering death themselves.

  耶各教派教会的记录描述了两个现已消散的从属组织:苍白面具的友伴[the Companions of the Pallid Mask]和耶各之手[the Hand of Jergal]。苍白面具的友伴是专门打击或控制不死生物的耶各教派祭司组织。他们消灭着其存在未被教会批准、或其被证实引起了麻烦的不死生物。他们也监管着教会在很久以前、有时为盈利而运营的无智慧不死生物工作队。耶各之手是一个狂热祭司领导其他人组成的精英组织,在高阶祭司的指挥下,他们被命令去报复对耶各教会的轻辱。他们致力于对抗,那些唤起或复活了某人又未向耶各致上适当贡物品的其他信仰者,或是那些亵渎或掠夺了在教会保护下的墓葬之人。
Records of the Jergali church speak of two now-extinct affiliated groups:the Companions of the Pallid Mask and the Hand of Jergal. The Companions of the Pallid Mask were a group of Jergali priests who specialized in combating or commanding the undead. They eliminated undead creatures whose existence was not sanctioned by the church or who had proven to be troublesome. They also supervised nonsentient undead work crews that the church sometimes ran for profit long ago. The Hand of Jergal was an elite group of fanatic priests who led others under their command to avenge slights upon the church of Jergal at the direction of a high priest. They acted against those of other faiths who raised or resurrected someone without paying due tribute to Jergal or who violated or looted a tomb under the protection of the church.

祭司的祭服Priestly Vestments:
  耶各的神职人员将他们的头剃得精光,并穿着朴素的灰色长袍、白色的长手套。任何时候他们都带着一个装着卷轴、墨水和羽毛笔的挎包。他们也会带着一个孔洞密封的脱水人类头骨,里面装着被用作印封仪仪式的、灰烬与骨粉的简单混合物。这个头骨也充当着他们的圣徽。
Priestly Vestments:Jergal's clergy shave their heads smooth and garb themselves in unadorned gray robes and long,white gloves. At all times they carry a satchel of scrolls,inks,and quills. They also carry a desiccated human skull with the openings plugged that they use to contain the simple mixture of ash and powdered bones employed in Sealing rituals. This skull also serves as their holy symbol.

冒险装束Adventuring Garb:
  耶各教派的祭司们只有在非常罕见时、且只会在耶各的嘱命下冒险。末日的公证人在冒险中寻找那些试图通过魔法延续他们的生命超过他们命定的时刻者,然后结束他们的存在。耶各教派的祭司们可能会穿戴着他们希望能保护自己的任意防具——这与万物终结之主并不相涉,因为任何生命都将在其命定的时刻死去,而不管采取什么防护来对抗。耶各教派的祭司们被训练使用钝击武器,以便他们将对手的骨头碎成粉末、将来用作印封仪仪式。
Adventuring Garb:Jergali priests only very rarely adventure,and then only at Jergal's bequest. Adventuring Scriveners of Doom seek out those who attempt to prolong their lives beyond their appointed time through magic and then terminate their existence. Jergali priests may wear any armor that they wish to protect themselves—it is irrelevant to the Lord of the End of Everything since every living being will die at its appointed time,regardless of what protections it takes to the contrary. Jergali priests are trained in bludgeoning weapons so that they can powder the bones of their opponents for use in future Sealing rituals

  ·末日抄写员在现实中数量非常少,而末日抄写员除非在耶各的嘱命下绝不会外出冒险。基本上,他们非玩家角色。
  ·The number of doomscribes in existence is very small,and doomscribes never adventure except at Jergal's behest. Essentially,they are a nonplayer character class.

  ·只有人类可以成为末日抄写员。
  ·Only humans can be doomscribes.

  ·每日3次,当末日抄写员成功驱散或支配不死时,他们可以影响到的生物数量翻倍。
  ·When doomscribes successfully turn or command undead,they can double the number of creatures they affect up to three times a day.

  ·末日抄写员知晓大量关于不死生物、以及活物的灵魂在死后的最终归宿的信息。这一知识分为两种领域:尸腐学[necrology]和冥界知识[netherworld]知识。(这些知识的领域都与来自《完全死灵法师手册Complete Book of Necromancers》的尸腐学和冥界知识这两种知识相同。)
  ·Doomscribes know a great deal about undead creatures and the ultimate destinations of the spirits of living creatures after they die. This knowledge is separated into two fields:necrology and netherworld knowledge.(These fields of knowledge are identical to the necrology and netherworld knowledge nonweapon proficiencies from the Complete Book of Necromancers.)

    尸腐学Necrology:末日抄写员精通尸腐学,这项关于不死生物的学问。当检定他们的尸腐学知识时,末日抄写员对他们的感知值进行属性检定。他们的知识可能被用于帮助确定潜在的巢穴、饮食习惯、以及身份来历(不需要属性检定)。每当一位末日抄写员遭遇一只亡灵时,他或她也许就可以以一次成功的属性检定精确地辨认这个生物(例如说,分辨出一只妖鬼和一只普通的食尸鬼)。除此之外,假若末日抄写员进行了一次成功的属性检定,她或他将回忆起这个生物的特殊弱点以及天生的防御或者免疫。依DM的裁定,若(在上述情况中的任意一种下)一次属性检定失败,可以给出误导性的甚至是完全错误的信息,如果照做的话也许就会使亡灵更加强大,或者在其他方面对亡灵有所助益。
    Necrology:Doomscribes are well versed in necrology,the lore of undead creatures. When checking their necrology knowledge,doomscribes make an ability check against their Wisdom score. Their knowledge may be used to help determine the probable lairs,dining habits,and history of such creatures(no ability check needed). Whenever a doomscribe confronts an undead creature,she or he may be able to specifically identify the creature(discerning between a ghast and a common ghoul,for instance) with a successful ability check. In addition,provided the doomscribe makes another successful ability check,she or he recalls the creature's specific weaknesses and natural defenses or immunities. At the DM's discretion a failed ability check(in either of these cases) reveals misleading or even completely erroneous information which may actually strengthen or otherwise benefit the undead creature.

    冥界知识Netherworld Knowledge:末日抄录者学习了关于外层位面[the Outer Planes]的宇宙学和结构,特别是涉及诸国度、尤其是灵魂死后的最终归宿的。除此之外,末日抄录者还学习了关于那些居住在下层界[the nether regions]的危险生物,包括如塔纳厘[tanar'ri]和巴特祖[baatezu]这样的邪魔:当检定他们的冥界知识时,末日抄录者进行一次对他们感知值-3的属性检定。以一次成功的属性检定,冥界知识能揭示来自外层位面存在的特殊弱等和天然免疫。以一次成功的属性检定,冥界知识还能确定遭遇的跨神域生物的确切种类。
    Netherworld Knowledge:Doomscribes learn about the cosmology and organization of the Outer Planes and how this specifically relates to the Realms,focusing primarily on the ultimate destination of spirits after death. In addition,doomscribes learn about the dangerous behavior of the creatures that inhabit the nether regions,including such fiends as tanar'ri and baatezu;When checking their netherworld knowledge,doomscribes make an ability check against their Wisdom score minus three. With a successful ability check,netherworld knowledge can reveal the specific weaknesses and natural immunities of beings from the Outer Planes. Netherworld knowledge can also be used to classify the exact type of extraplanar creature encountered with a successful ability check.

  ·一些末日抄写员在保留了他们能力的同时转变为了木乃伊或高等木乃伊。在世的末日抄写员在此事上别无选择;耶各的决定,在某些领域对凡人来说不可预测,在死亡的那一瞬间,这位末日抄写员若将必须被留在在主物质位面继续服务,她或他将在随后被变为木乃伊为耶各尽职。
  ·Some doomscribes retain their abilities into undeath as mummies and greater mummies. Living doomscribes have no choice in the matter;Jergal decides,in some fashion inscrutable to mortals,at the moment of death whether a doomscribe's services will continue to be needed on the Prime Material Plane and she or he will then become a mummy in Jergal's service.

  ·末日抄写员施展来自守序和时间领域的法术在所有方面力量翻倍。
  ·All spells cast by doomscribes from the spheres of law and time are cast at double strength in all aspects.

  ·末日抄写员得以用石化豁免检定,对抗任何将吸取他们经验值等级或生命值的能量吸取攻击。
  ·Doomscribes gain a saving throw vs. petrification against any form of energy-draining attack that could drain them of experience levels or hit points.

  ·每日1次,末日抄写员能假死术[feign death](如同2级法师法术)或施展衰弱射线[ray of enfeeblement](如同2级法师法术)。
  ·Doomscribes can feign death(as the 2nd-level wizard spell) or cast a ray of enfeeblement(as the 2nd-level wizard spell) once a day.

  ·每日1次,末日抄写员能够施展木乃伊之触[mummy touch]头骨守卫[skull watch](如同来自《巫师之页Pages From the Mages》的3级法师法术)。
  ·At 3rd level,doomscribes are able to cast mummy touch or skull watch(as the 3rd-evel wizard spells from Pages From the Mages) once per day.

  ·在第5级,末日抄写员变得每日免疫一个等级的能量吸取。因此,如果他们遭遇了某个生物的命中,将造成他们失去了2个经验值等级、且他们在石化豁免检定中失败,他们将只是去1个经验值等级。他们在第10级获得另一个等级的免疫,然后在第15级再获得另一个(总计3个)。
  ·At 5th level,doomscribes become immune to one level of energydraining damage per day. Thus,if they are struck by a creature that causes them to lose two levels of experience and they fail their saving throw vs. petrification,they lose only one level of experience. They gain another level of immunity at 10th level,and yet another(for a total of three) at 15th level.

  ·在第5级,每日1次,末日抄写员能够施展不死守卫[undead ward](如同5级祭司法术)。该守卫创造驱散不死生物时,以末日抄写员等级而非低2级使用这个能力。
  ·At 5th level,doomscribes are able to cast undead ward(as the 5th-level priest spell) once a day. The ward they create turns undead creatures at the level of the doomscribe using this ability,rather than two levels lower.

  ·在第7级,每日3次,末日抄写员能够以接触施展弱能术(如同4级法师法术)。
  ·At 7th level,doomscribes are able to cast enervation by touch(as the 4th-level wizard spell) thrice per day.

  ·在第10级,每日1次,末日抄写员能够活化尸体[animate dead](如同5级方式法术)。虽然凯兰沃成为死亡之主一事,对耶各的神职人员创造更多不死生物的阻碍。然而尽管如此,无智慧不死生物的创造远比智慧不死生物的创造远更为可取,而一些祭司仍在继续利用这一能力。
  ·At 10th level,doomscribes are able to animate dead(as the 5th-level wizard spell) once a day. Since Kelemvor became the Lord of the Dead,the creation of additional undead by Jergal's clergy is discouraged. Nonetheless,creating nonintelligent undead is vastly preferable to the creation of sentient undead,and some priests continue to employ this ability.

  ·在第13级,每日2次,末日抄写员能施展老化生物[age creature](如同6级祭司法术)。该能力效果不翻倍。
  ·At 13th level,doomscribes can cast age creature(as the 6th-level priest spell) twice a day. This ability is not doubled in effect.

  ·在第20级,每日1次,以接触,末日抄写员能够吸能术[energy drain](如同9级同名法师法术)。
  ·At 20th level,doomscribes are able to energy drain(as the 9th-level wizard spell of the same name) by touch once per day.

耶各教派的法术Jergali Spells

1st Level
侦测活物Detect Living
  (祭司Pr 1;预言[Divination],死灵[Necromancy])

  领域Sphere:预言[Divination],死灵[Necromantic]
  距离Range:0
  组件Components:言语V,姿势S
  持续时间Duration:1 轮/级[round/level]
  施法时间Casting Time:4
  影响区域Area of Effect:以施法者为圆心,60英尺半径球体[60-foot-radius sphere,centered on caster]
  豁免检定Saving Throw:无[None]

  该法术能发现活物的气息,使效果区域内的所有活物、获得一道只对施法者可见且容易辨别的光环。目标的智能是决定法术效果的关键因素,因为智能更高的生物光芒更明亮。该法术无法直接接触精神和发现被魔法或灵能所隐蔽的动物或其他生物。不在场的占卜者的意志可以透过秘法眼[wizard eyes]或者水晶球[crystal balk]使用此能力,隐藏在异次元的人被认为是不存在的。这个法术可以探测生命,包括隐形、隐藏、变形(甚至被困在固体物体或魔法形式)、星质、或虚体,但不会揭示生命的状态。这个法术不会揭示生命的类型、思想或倾向(换句话说,敌对或友好)。
This spell discovers emanations of life,making all living things within the area of effect glow with an easily discernible aura visible only to the caster. Intelligence is the main quality upon which the spell focuses,because more intelligent creatures glow more brightly. The spell does not allow direct mental contact and does not detect magically or psionically-shielded creatures or the wills of “not present” scryers such as wizards using wizard eyes or crystal balk. Beings hidden in extradimensionai space are considered wnot present. This spell can detect life that is invisible,concealed,disguised(even trapped within solid objects or magical forms),astral,or ethereal,but does not reveal the state of the life. This spell gives no hint of the nature,thoughts,or inclination(in other words,hostile or friendly) of the life detected.

  这个法术由末日的公证者开发;他们明白凡人经常逃避永恒的安息,被恐惧和无知所蒙蔽,难以意识到祭司正试图帮助他们。该法术也是一种应对活物对手可能的伏击的防御手段。
This spell was developed by Scriveners of Doom who understood that mortals often flee from eternal rest,too blinded by fear and ignorance to realize that a priest is trying to help them. The spell also serves as a defense against living adversaries who might try to ambush the speltcaster.

3rd Level
终焉的审视Determine Final Rest
  (祭司Pr 3;预言[Divination])

  领域Sphere:预言[Divination]
  距离Range:10 码[yards]
  组件Components:言语V,姿势S
  持续时间Duration:1 回合[turn]
  施法时间Casting Time:6
  影响区域Area of Effect:1个生物 或 1具尸体[1 creature or 1 corpse]
  豁免检定Saving Throw:通过即无效Neg.

  这个法术类似于知晓阵营[know alignment],使牧师能够阅读一只在世或已逝生物的灵光。然而,这个特定的变体法术是用来快速确定它相关的外位面以及与各个外位面的关联程度(如果有一个以上)以确定它死后将去往何处(由其信仰、种族、阵营所决定,虽然这些都由DM记录而非施法者)。如果目标在被送往一个错误的埋骨地的途中或应抗拒而改道时,这个法术会令你注意到这个事实,但不会更改前往的目的地。请注意,那些能够抑制通晓阵营的法术或者目标也将能够抑制终焉的审视。死者通常无法豁免此法术,除非他们实际上是不死生物。
This spell is similar to know alignment in that it enables the priest to read the aura of a living or deceased creature. However,this particular strain of magic is used to quickly determine the Outer Plane and the particular level within that plane(if it possesses more than one) to which the examined individual correctly should be consigned to after death(as determined by a being's religion,nature,and alignment,chough the DM notes these are they arc not revealed to the spellcaster). If a being has been sent to an incorrect final rest or redirected unwillingly en route,this spell notes that fact,but not the destination to which the being has been sent. Note that those spells and objects that would prevent a know alignment spell from functioning also inhibit a determine final rest spell. Corpses do not normally receive a saving throw vs. this spell unless they are actually undead creatures.

4th Level
终焉的探寻Seek Eternal Rest
  (祭司Pr 4;改变[Alteration])

  领域Sphere:死灵[Necromantic],时间[Time]
  距离Range:0
  组件Components:言语V,姿势S,材料M
  持续时间Duration:5轮 或 直到施法者试图驱散不死[5 rounds or until the caster attempts to turn undead]
  施法时间Casting Time:7
  影响区域Area of Effect:施法者[The caster]
  豁免检定Saving Throw:无[None]

  以这道法术为手段,这位祭司能增强他/她的下一次驱散不死生物尝试。在被赋予这道法术效果的力量期间,祭司若在下次驱散不死生物尝试上成功,将不可逆地毁灭他们所驱散的不死生物。举例来说,若一位8级牧师尝试驱散一具鬼魂[ghost],并在施展终焉的探寻后骰出了19,这具鬼魂将立即被毁灭。
By means of this spell,the priest can augment his or her next attempt to turn undead. While empowered by the effects of this spell,priests who successfully turn undead on their next attempt to do so irrevocably dispel the undead creatures they turn. For example,if a 8th-level cleric attempted to turn a ghost and rolled an 19 after casting seek eternal rest,the ghost would be immediately destroyed.

  被赋予这道法术效果的力量的祭司,将自动毁灭他们的驱散所影响不死生物类型2倍正常数量的不死生物。举例来说,若一位8级牧师驱散一大群骷髅[skeleton],她将自动驱散4d6+4d4具骷髅。
Priests who are empowered by the effects of this spell and would automatically dispel the type of undead they are turning affect twice the normal number of undead. For example,if an 8th-level cleric attempted to turn a host of skeletons,she would automatically dispel 4d6+4d4 skeletons.

  若这位祭司在施展终焉的探寻后5轮内未尝试驱散不死生物,这道法术将毫无效果地结束、并消散。
If the priest does not attempt to turn undead within five rounds of casting seek eternal rest,the spell ends with no effect and is lost.

  该法术的材料成分是这位祭司的圣徽。
The material component for this spell is the priest's holy symbol.

5th Level
耶各的心灵探针Jergal's Mind Probe
  (祭司Pr 5;预言[Divination],死灵[Necromantic])

  领域Sphere:预言[Divination],死灵[Necromantic]
  距离Range:接触[Touch]
  组件Components:言语V,姿势S,材料M
  持续时间Duration:特殊[Special]
  施法时间Casting Time:8
  影响区域Area of Effect:1个生物[creature]
  豁免检定Saving Throw:通过即无效Neg.

  这道法术结合了3级法师法术麻痹术[paralyze]和2级法师法术超感[ESP]的效果。在施展这道法术的时候,这位祭司将得到以这道法术的效果攻击单一智慧生物的能力。为了击中目标并传达这道法术的效果,该祭司必须攻击投骰成功。在试图成功地完成攻击时,该祭司能无限期地延迟攻击,但若他在成功地使用了这道法术前,试图施展其它法术,先前所施展但未使用的心灵探针将立即消散。任何在施展了这道法术后,被施法者触碰到的智慧生物(除了施法者本人)将被视为这道法术的目标,即便这位祭司并未打算攻击那个生物。
This spell combines the effect of a the 3rd-level wizard spell paralyze with the 2nd-level wizard spell ESP. Upon casting this spell,the priest gains the ability to attack a single sentient being with the effects of this spell. The priest must roll a successful attack roll in order to strike an opponent and deliver the spell effects. The priest can delay the attack indefinitely while trying to successfully complete an attack,but if he attempts to cast any other spell before successfully employing this spell,the previously cast but unused mind probe is immediately lost. Any sentient being touched by the spellcaster(other than himself or herself) following the casting of this spell is considered the target of this spell,even if the priest did not intend to attack that being.

  当这位祭司触碰到某一智慧生物时,该目标必须成功通过对抗法术豁免检定来避免这道法术的效果。若该后面失败,该目标将麻痹2d4轮。免疫麻痹的生物,以及不死或无生命的生物(例如魔像),不会被这道法术影响。非智慧生物同样免疫。
When the priest touches a sentient being,the target must make a suecessful saving throw vs.spell to avoid the spell's effects. If the saving throw is successful,the spell ends immediately with no effect. If the saving throw is failed,the target is paralyzed for 2d4 rounds. Creatures that are immune to paralysis,as well as undead and unliving creatures such as golems,cannot be affected by this spell. Nonintelligent creatures are similarly immune.

  在生物被这道法术效果麻痹期间,这位祭司能探查它心灵的每个角落。抵御超感、读心术魔法、或提供类似的保护的魔法或灵能防御,将阻塞这道法术这方面的效果。这位祭司唯一能确定的信息,便是法术受害者宣称的信仰、受害者在其生命历程中如何使用它的天赋力量、受害者在其生命历程中如何处理它的弱点、受害者最羞愧的失败、以及受害者最骄傲的成就。在麻痹生效期间,每轮将依序得到这样一条信息。
While a being is paralyzed by the effects of this spell,the priest can probe every corner of its mind. This aspect of the spell is blocked by magical or psionic defenses to ESP,mind-reading magic,or similar protections. The only type of information the priest can determine is the professed faith of the victim of this spell,how true the victim has been to its professed faith,how well the victim has used its natural strengths over the course of its life,how well the victim has dealt with its weaknesses over the course of its life,the failures of which the victim is most ashamed,and the accomplishments of which the victim is most proud. One such nugget of information,in order,is learned per round that the paralysis is in effect.

  若(如前所述)这位祭司施展了另一道法术,或是祭司停止了对探查法术目标心灵的专注,这道法术将立即终止。这道法术的施展是对生物自我意识的侵犯,所以大部分成为了这道法术目标的受害者,都在这道法术效果持续期间,对施展法术的祭司产生了一种强烈的恨意。
The spell is ended immediately if the priest casts another spell,as stated previously,or ceases to concentrate on probing the mind of the spells target. The casting of this spell is such a violation of a being's sense of self that most victims targeted by this spell build up a strong hatred for the casting priest during the spells effects.

  这道法术的材料成分是这位祭司的圣徽。
The material component of this spell is the priest's holy symbol.

7th Level
末日之门Gate of Doom
  (祭司Pr 7;咒法/召唤[Conjuration/Summoning])

  领域Sphere:召唤[Summoning]
  距离Range:10 码[yards]
  组件Components:言语V,姿势S,材料M
  持续时间Duration:1 轮/级[round/level]
  施法时间Casting Time:1 轮[round]
  影响区域Area of Effect:10 平方英尺/级[square feet per level]
  豁免检定Saving Throw:无[None]

  这道法术创造了一道来自于负能量位面[the Negative Energy Plane]的能量墙,它是通向那片陨落之地一条事实上的通道。末日之门展现为一道微微发亮、无光的黑色帷幕。任何触碰到末日之门的凡物,在接触的每轮,将遭受2d6点伤害并永久失去1个经验值等级或生命骰。那些愚蠢到穿越这道帷幕的生物,将立即被传送到负能量位面,这几乎肯定会导致他们的死亡,因为从未有从这道法术创造的通道的另一边重返者。
This spell creates a wall of energy from the Negative Energy Plane that is actually a portal to that fell place. A gate of doom appears as a shimmering curtain of lightless black. Any mortal creature who touches a gate of doom suffers 2d6 points of damage and permanently loses one level of experience or Hit Dice per round of contact. Those foolish enough to pass through this curtain are instantly transported to the Negative Energy Plane,almost certainly causing their deaths,as no portal is created by this spell on that side by which to return.

  只要不超过影响区域的范围,施法者能以任何松散的矩形结构来施展这道法术。一旦被施展,末日之门的位置将被固定,直到消褪前不会被这位祭司或其它任何人移动。这道法术不能被施展在任何活物身上。试图这样做会让末日之门出现在附近的随机位置。
The spellcaster may cast this spell in any loosely rectangular configuration that does not exceed the area of effect. Once cast,the location of the gate of doom is fixed and cannot be moved by the priest or anyone else until the effect fades. This spell cannot be cast on any living creature. Attempting to do so causes the gate of doom to appear nearby in a random location.

  法术负位面保护[negative plane protection]将在这道法术生效期间,提供对这道法术效果的完全免疫,包括预防个体被传入负能量位面。除了木乃伊(或是任何其它类型与正能量位面[the Positive Energy Plane]联系在一起的不死生物)也无视这道法术的效果。
The spell negative plane protection provides complete immunity to this spell while it is in effect,including preventing an individual from passing into the Negative Energy Plane. All undead creatures except mummies(or any other type of undead tied to the Positive Energy Plane) may ignore this spell's effects as well.

  在末日之门100码内不死生物的等级吸取、吸能术[energy drain]法术、以衰弱[enervation]法术和类似效果与能力,总是产生2倍于最大值的效果。
Level-draining undead,energy drain spells,and enervation spells and similar effects and abilities cast or used within 100 yards of a gate of doom always operate at twice their maximum effect.

  该法术的材料成分是一小支黑色木炭、一块价值至少50gp的实心黑色宝石、以及这位祭司的圣徽。
The material components of this spell are a small stick of black charcoal,a solid black gemstone of at least 50 gp value,and the priest's holy symbol.
