Unlucky Strike

Gods show favor on their warriors with this spell giving them aid in battle!

After casting this spell in preparation as a bonus action it becomes an active trigger. Upon being successfully hit by an attack of a non magical variety you can make a competing roll. If you roll higher than your opponent (adding an Arcana check to your roll) you  can roll on the table below for an adverse effect to the opponent, and the caster receiving only half damage from the initial strike.

Roll a D4 for one of the following effects:

1. It Had To Be Snakes: the attackers weapon (if using a bow the arrows in their quiver will be affected) turns into a poisonous viper. your attacker is bit and takes 1d4 piercing damage and 1d6 poison damage.

2. Swing and Hit...and Hit : the attackers put a little too much power behind their attack, resulting in them hitting themselves in the overswing dealing 1d6 Bludgeoning damage. if hit by an arrow the bow string hits the arrow shaft sending a sliver back at them giving them 1d4 piercing damage.

3. OSHA Hazard: When making their attack your foe slips rolling their ankle dealing 1d4 force damage and reducing their speed by half for 2 rounds.

4. What Have I Done?:  In an uncharacteristic moment of guilt your foe immediately is overcome by the Fear condition for 2 rounds, getting it in their head that they have upset their deity.
