Topic: Turn Undead Question
I play a cleric in Scott's (of huge ruined pile) Flame Princess game. The other night I had the opportunity to cast turn undead, and I didn't roll high enough. Reading the spell, we saw that even though I'd failed the turn attempt, I was still able to hold the undead at bay by continuing to brandish my holy symbol. This left me curious about a couple of things
1- If they are held at bay rather than successfully turned, I'm curious as to what you had in mind would happen if some cohort of the cleric attacked the fiend, or one of a group of undead.
2- If the cleric would, due to level or other factors, have no chance of actually turning a given undead, would the creature still be subject to being held at bay?
Thanks!
