[[~~Serena (XI)|Serena~~]] ~~learns anathematise at level 19. It costs 4 MP to cast~~, and will ~~lower a momnster's spell resistance~~ by 25%. The spell has a ~~base accuracy of~~ 50%, and ~~will reach 75% if the lass' magical might is 799~~. ~~Because Serena never develops that stat naturally~~, ~~equipment boosts and several [[Seed of therapeusis|seeds of thereapeusis]] to get~~ the ~~most out of this ability~~.

Known as '''Divine Intervention''' in this game, it is learned by [[Angelo]] after investing 27 points into his "Charisma" skill, and will increase damage by 25% for 4 MP. The spell has a 50% chance to succeed, and not a single enemy has a resistance to it. That being said, the spell is still not advised for metal slime hunting.

~~In the Japanese version of ''XI'' anathematise~~ is ~~actually~~ [[~~Divine Intervention~~]], as the ~~localized term shares~~ the same ~~attributes as~~ the spell ~~did in previous games. The ability known as divine intervention in~~ the ~~international version~~ is ~~named ''Goddess' Blessings'' (女神の祝福) in~~ the ~~original Japanese~~.

Divine Intervention is learned by [[sage]]s at level 13. It costs 4 MP to cast, and as the spell equivalent of Spooky Aura it uses the same resistance check when success probability is calculated. If the caster's magical might is lower of equal to 50 the spell has a 50% accuracy, and one the threshold is breached the spell will reach 75% accuracy at 799 magical might.

It ~~is unknown why the~~ spell ~~was given~~ a ~~new name for~~ the ~~English release, but it~~ is ~~possible~~ that the ~~divine intervention term was deemed more appropriate for a "hail Mary"~~ ability ~~that can turn the tide of battle when needed most~~.

==Etymology==

Anathematise is the British English spelling of ''anathematize'', which describes the act of placing an anathema upon a person. Anathema itself is a vigorous denouncement or curse pronounced by ecclesiastical authority, which is typically accompanied by excommunication from a group.
