Although Bless is still a low-level spell, not much else from its Dungeons & Dragons roots carries-over into Buffy the Vampire Slayer RPG. It is, however, ubiquitous, being reprinted in nearly all copies of The Holy Book, which can be readily found at any place of worship, motel room, or bookstore. This is the Theomancy version which includes instructions on how to include participants; all other interpretations are Gnostic and leave out this information.
