Normal: You speak a simple word of health, providing an ally with minor healing ability. At the beginning of each turn, a green flash surrounds the target, who heals slightly.

The target gains fast healing 1 per caster level. This fast-healing cannot bring a creature above 50% of its hit points.

Reverse: By uttering the reverse form of the life-giving words, you unmake a portion of the subject's being causing your enemy to experience painfully bleeding of old wounds.

You deal 1d6 points of damage per level each turn. Creatures above 50% of their hitpoints do not take damage from this effect.
