New page

The '''holy spell school''' only existed in pre-DCSS versions of ''Crawl''. Its spells provided a wide variety of useful effects, very few of which can still be found as spells. Among its spells were:
* Lesser/Greater Healing: acted just like a [[potion of curing]]/[[potion of heal wounds]] (neither cured status effects, though).
* [[Purification]]: Similar to the Zin ability.
* Restore Strength/Dexterity/Intelligence: These were very useful if you found them, since in early versions, stats did not heal naturally, and [[potion of restore abilities|potions of restore abilities]] could be quite rare.
* [[Smiting]]: Back when this was available to players as a spell effect, it was, appropriate, a holy spell.
* [[Cure Poison]]: The only holy spell that still exists as a spell, albeit under a different school.

==History==
Holy spells still existed in the code for a long time after they were removed, although they could never be generated in DCSS except through bugs. However, before the advent of gods in pre-DCSS Crawl, they filled the niche that the [[good gods]] now fill. Indeed, the abilities provided by holy spells were generally parceled off to the good gods.
