Cleric: Arcana Domain
Original Source: Sword Coast Adventurer's Guide
Magic is an energy that suffuses the multiverse and that fuels both destruction and creation. Gods of the Arcana domain know the secrets and potential of magic intimately. For some of these gods, magical knowledge is a great responsibility that comes with a special understanding of the nature of reality. Other gods of Arcana see magic as pure power, to be used as its wielder sees fit.
The gods of this domain are often associated with knowledge, as learning and arcane power tend to go hand-in-hand.

On a failed save, the creature is Frightened for 1 minute or until it takes any damage. While Frightened, the creature's speed is 0, and it can't benefit from any bonus to its speed.
