Hope Subdomain for Worldcenter

We are almost at the end of the year, so here is something I think we all need for this year to come: hope for our world to heal and for the bad things that are happening and could happen to end or be avoided.

This subdomain is granted by Eala, the goddess from my homebrew setting of Worldcenter who has figured in some previous posts.

Hope Subdomain

Associated Domains: Good, Luck.

Replacement Power: The following granted power replaces the touch of good power of the Good domain or the bit of luck power of the Luck domain.

Uplifting Word (Su): As a standard action, you can speak a word of encouragement to  creature within 30 feet. That creature is granted a new saving throw against any mind-affecting effect that relies on negative emotions (such as crushing despair, rage, or fear effects) or that would force him to harm an ally (such as confusion) that currently affects it. If the saving throw is successful, the negative emotion effect is ended. This power only affects effects that allow a save. If you fail a save against such an effect, you can use this ability as an immediate action to grant yourself an additional save. Once the target (either you or another creature) has made one additional save per effect, this ability has no further effect on that particular effect. You can use this ability a number of times per day equal to 3 + your Wisdom modifier.

Replacement Domain Spells: 1st- unbreakable heart, 4th- good hope.
