The alteration consists of creating spaces in the spell's area or effect that are not subject to the spell. The minimum dimension for these spaces is a 5-foot cube. Furthermore, any shapeable (S) spells have a minimum dimension of 5 feet instead of 10 feet.Mastery of Counterspelling: When Acaoven successfully counterspells any spell subject to spell turning, she reflects it fully back on the original caster. A spell not subject to spell turning is merely counterspelled.Mastery of Elements: Acaoven can prepare any arcane spell she knows with the acid, cold, fire, electricity, or sonic designator to be cast as a different element. For example, a fireball may be prepared to deal sonic damage instead of fire damage.Gaining Acoaven's TutelageAcoaven requires those who wish to be an archmage to perform the following tasks:<ul> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Remain completely silent for 1 month, not speaking at all.</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Follow her to the Valley of the Ancients, which contain old looted tombs from an unknown time in the mists of history. During this time, the supplicant may not use magic, but instead must be able to correctly identify a potion of endure elements from a flask of normal water, or a flask of poison (FOrtitude Check: DC: 22, Damage 1d4 Int) each of the three days it will take to reach the Valley.</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Identify runes carved on the outer wall of the largest aboveground tomb. The supplicant must correctly identify ALL of the runes. (Knowledge (Arcana): DC: 28) They are: Pain, Death, Robbery, Afterlife, and Woe</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">The supplicant must then be able to memorize the spells given to them by Acoaven, which are: transmute rock to mud, forcecage, and summon monster V and then cast them in that order on the bubbling mudflats.</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Once these are accomplished, Acoaven will take the supplicant under her wing and teach then the arts of the Archmage</li> </ul>[/sblock]</blockquote>
