This spell blesses an area with positive energy. The DC to resist channel divinity abilities that use positive channeled energy within this area gains a +3 sacred bonus. Similarly, channel divinity abilities that don’t use positive energy suffer a -3 sacred penalty. Every undead creature entering a consecrated area suffers minor disruption, suffering a -1 sacred penalty on attack rolls, damage rolls, and saves. Undead cannot be created within or summoned into a consecrated area.
If the consecrated area contains an altar, shrine, or other permanent fixture dedicated to your deity, pantheon, or aligned higher power, the modifiers given above are doubled (+6 sacred bonus to positive channeled energy DCs, -2 penalties for undead in the area).
You cannot consecrate an area with a similar fixture of a deity other than your own patron. If the area contains an altar, shrine, or other permanent fixture of a deity, pantheon, or higher power other than your patron, the consecrate spell instead curses the area, cutting off its connection with the associated deity or power. This secondary function, if used, does not also grant the bonuses and penalties, as given above.
Consecrate counters and dispels desecrate.
