'ANOINT WEAPON' ANOINTWEAPON (1433)

Syntax: anointweapon <virtue> <weapon>

Paladins may anoint weapons with oils to impart blessings upon them.  Both
the weapon and the user must be untainted by vice for the anointment to have
a benefit.  Anointed weapons are permanently suitable for use by priests,
and carry with them an aspect of the virtue imparted for some time:

Charity: This blessing is intended for gifts to those allied with the guild,
and provides a minor protective benefit for a very long duration.  Unlike
the other five virtues, paladins may not benefit from this blessing.

Faith: This weapon will shield the wielder's mind, rendering its wielder
less susceptible to magical or mental influence.

Fortitude: The physical recuperation of this weapon's wielder will be
improved.

Hope: This weapon will lift the spirits of the wielder, and improve his or her
leadership abilities.

Retribution: This weapon will be better suited for battling the foes of the
paladin guild.

Temperance: This weapon will keep the wielder's mind well-prepared for using
supplications.

Paladins who have proven themselves especially possessed of a given quality
will be better able to impart it to a particular weapon.

If no weapon is specified, the skill defaults to the paladin's presently
wielded weapon.  Otherwise, the paladin may anoint any weapon in their
inventory, and may anoint multiple weapons if it is desired.
