Message: <blockquote data-quote="Storminator" data-source="post: 1411450" data-attributes="member: 305">Here's the incantation we'll be using. Couple of notes: GM said duration should be instantaneous, not permanent, as the knowledge should not be dispelable. I didn't refigure the DC. I figured the knowledge checks should be very difficult, as it all happened thousands of years ago, and we're 25th level so no gimmes. As it is there's only a check or two that's in any doubt. Bones of the Dwarves (divination)Effective Level: 8thSkill Checks: Knowledge (Arcana) 3 successes DC 44, Perform (Storytelling) 1 success DC 44, Knowledge (History) 1 success DC 44, Knowledge (Dwarves) 1 success DC 44, Knowledge (History) 1 success DC 44, Knowledge (Arcana) 1 success DC 44Failure: angry spiritsComponents: V, S, M, F, SC, BCasting Time: 80 minutesRange: TouchTarget: Dwarf secondary casterDuration: PermanentArea: 3000' radiusSaving Throw: Will negates (harmless)Spell Resistance: Yes (harmless)This incantation imparts knowledge of the location of the bones of the dwarven victims of the Dark Court Slaughter to the dwarven secondary caster. The incantation must be completed inside the Elven Court, by exactly three casters. The primary caster makes all the Knowledge (Arcana) checks. The second caster must recite the history of the Elven Court, ending with the Dark Court Slaughter. This requires a Perform check and a Knowledge (History) check. The third caster must be a dwarf, and must recite the names of the dwarven clans that died at the Dark Court Slaughter. This requires a Knowledge (Dwarves) and a Knowledge (History) check. The primary caster must then finish the incantation with a final Knowledge (Arcana) check. All casters are fatigued at the end of the ritual.On a successful casting, the dwarf secondary caster knows the current location of every bone from a dwarf that died in the Dark Court Slaughter, provided it is within the area of effect. This dwarf will always know the location of these bones, even if they are moved. The duration is permanent.Material component: blood of a survivor (Shevarash)Material focus: bone of a descendent (a currently unknown dwarf)Extra casters: Two required; one must be a dwarfDC breakdown:30 base for Divination incantation+4 minutes to hours+6 hours to days+10 days to permanent+3 Double range+3 Double range (total range increase is tripled)-4 Expensive material (blood of a survivor)-1 Expensive focus (bone of a descendent)-2 secondary casters (<10)-1 more than one skill-1 skill not on wizard list-2 backlash: exhausted-1 backlash effects secondary casters44 Total</blockquote>
