Sometimes, mercy is called for in the martial field. With this prayer, the paladin asks his or her deity to dull the edge of her blades so any weapon she actively wields inflicts subdual damage instead of lethal damage. This does not alter the weapon's damage type, or otherwise change the weapon in any way. Despite the name of the prayer, any sort of weapon wielded by the paladin may be affected. If the weapon is dropped or otherwise discarded, the spell ends for that weapon until it is wielded again by the paladin.
For the purposes of this last-minute spell, the wielding of the weapon is considered its Somatic component. The effect may be dismissed at any time.
Note: W'need to remember to review the other spells for flavor/balance/suitability before porting.
