Re: Spells and Such
I like them, but why does the preist archtype get a morale bonus instead of an enhancment bonus?

Re: Spells and Such
These are some truly interesting, well-rounded spells here. However, I have a few suggestions. Just for clarification, these are just suggestions. I found no technical flaws, just things that gnaw at my mind.
1) Cloak Weapon sounds like it could have a Sense Motive check to negate the effects, thus allowing the victim a means of defense. Kind of like a feint. Or maybe that could be like a Lesser Cloak Weapon. Also, maybe you should specify whether the attack must be made in the same round of the casting. Lastly, maybe the weapon should also be listed in the Focus Component entry.
2) I think that Blight Womb should mention whether or not it has an effect on non-mammals that use eggs as a means of gestation.
3) To avoid cheese, maybe you should specify that the touch attacks are melee in the latter few.
Otherwise? Blight Womb seems too disturbing to not be evil. Or maybe its just how I'm shuddering at it being 1st level for clerics.
78% of DM's started their first campaign in a tavern.
If you're one of the 22% that didn't, copy and paste this into your signature.
I finally remembered this account after two years. If I begin to get nostalgic, just snap me out of it. Don't worry, I don't expect you to remember me.

Re: Spells and Such
My only answer to most of those is: Gee, I guess you're right. However, my logic for my first suggestion was that they do see you motioning towards them as though you had a weapon in your hand. The DC should be pretty high, though, so I guess it would be just a fruitless effort.
