"Mind stealer has been cast on it, so it will steal knowledge from non-players."
Killing a non-player creature with a weapons enchanted with Mind Stealer may transfer skill points to the player. When a creature is killed, the game chooses a random skill or characteristic the creature has, and compares the creature's points in that skill to that of the player. If the creature has more points in that skill than the player does, then the player gains points in that skill. The amount of skill gained by the player depends on how much more skill the creature has compared to the player, and the power level of the Mind Stealer enchantment.
The amount of Mind Stealer may also be cast on arrows. When cast on arrows, skill gained by the player depends is transferred on how much more skill the creature has compared to the player, and the power level of the Mind Stealer enchantmentsuccessful hits rather than kills.
Mind Stealer requires 120 favor to cast, and therefore requires [[linking]] of multiple priests or possessing a special [[Kingdom Title#Offices|kingdom title]] on Chaos or Epic. The titles of Royal Priest (JK) , Religious Advisor (MR), and Seer (HOTS) allow for half-favor casting.
