Usage:
cast chasten <target>

The 'chasten' spell uses divine power to inflict moderate injuries to the
bodies of opponents. It does not do much damage, but it completely ignores
armor and almost all magical and physical defenses. This spell is close
range - you must be willing to engage in melee combat to cast it and
cannot have nomelee on.

In addition to inflicting physical damage, this spell batters the target's
soul, causing them to lose morale. It is most potent when the caster
is wielding a blunt weapon like a mace or hammer. Only living creatures
are demoralized.

Both the 'afflict' curse and the 'death and decay' spell increase the
potency of this spell.
