Reading a scroll of holy word will slow, frighten, and deal 3d15 + 1d10 damage to all undead and demonic targets in your line of sight. If you are a worshiper of the good gods the damage is increased by your piety: 3d15 + 1d(10+piety/10) for the Shining One; 3d15 + 1d(10+piety/20) for Zin and Elyvilon. If you read this scroll and you are Undead or Demonspawn your hit points will be halved.
It is a rare scroll, but this effect can also be produced through Zin's Sanctuary ability or when the Shining One blesses a weapon.
