    My Battle of Tempus Cleric - Level 13, has spells blacked out and when I click on them, they say `Beyond cleric ability`?
    Why was she allowed to learn them, if she`s not allowed to use them?
    Very confused! Help would be appreciated.

    Check your Cleric's Wisdom score. In order to cast that spell, your WIS needs to be 10+the level of the spell you want to cast. I'm sure you know that, but the reason I am stating it is because maybe you got hit with a curse or a spell that lowered your WIS score. If that is so, then that would explain it. Otherwise, I have no clue.

    I checked that and her wisdom is 15 +3. I believe the spells are level 9 so her wisdom isn`t high enough.
    Is there some way of increasing her wisdom?
    There`s a lot to take into consideration when playing this game. I gave her high intelligence at the beginning and didn`t envisage this problem.
    Cheers,

    At level 13 your cleric wouldn't have access to level 9 spells anyway, so I don't know what is going on there. But there is a ring I found that increases a characters wisdom by 5 points. That would solve your problem.

    I've also found two permanent Wisdom increase potions one = +2, one +1. Should help you along the way. They have a price though. So high I haven't used one of them.....

    I remember finding such a potion in chapter 2. In the area where you crash Oswald's ship, to the north-east of this map, you are warned not to proceed. It's the little town right before you enter the icewall.
    If you DO enter the town, you will be attacked, kill everyone and you can loot the potion of someone. I think the potion adds 2 wisdom and subtracts 1 constitution if I remember correct.

    Good luck

    Actually it's -2 to CON and +1 to WIS. ;)
