This spell calls forth a dread devourer of Iilim, one of Xthjich's dread minions to briefly inhabit the body of the caster. While so affected, their hit points, saves, and resistance to fire will all be significantly increased. In combat, they will breathe black fire upon their foes. As well, the presence of the possessing spirit will give the caster a weakness to holy damage, and should they attempt to speak or emote, the devourer will instead speak with their voice. The spirit is also able to force the caster to attack spirit scholars and templars that they pass by; they will also find it more difficult to flee from combat.

When demonic possession ends, the spell's recast delay begins and the caster will immediately be forced to a resting position. Their hit points and mana will be reduced by half due to the force of the demon leaving. They will also suffer a penalty to his maximum health relational to their level. The exorcism spell can prematurely force the demon out of the caster.

This spell may not be cast in a sanctified room, nor may one possessed enter such a room. A planar barrier against Void will also bar entry. When this spell is cast, if the caster is affected by spirit shield, protection evil or focus mind, those spells end.

It is possible to attempt to cast this spell with gold aura. It is not a good idea to do so.
