BLESS

Syntax: cast bless [target] This spell improves the to-hit roll and saving
throw versus spell of the target character.  It also brings the character a
random percentage back towards their permanent alignment.  It can be cast on
items as well as people.  Such items are removed of any malevolent evil
permanently and can be more effective in combat vs.  Certain creatures (like
demonic beings) for the duration of the spell.  If no target is given, it is
assumed to be the caster.

NOTE: For the bless aura to be seen, both the observer and the individual
affected by the spell must share the same alignment.
