[QUOTE="Cleon, post: 6322296, member: 57383"] I'm fine with [I]miracle[/I] but it seems a little too good for a [I]limited wish[/I], since the strongest spells a [I]limited wish[/I] can duplicate are a 6th level sorcerer/wizard spell (e.g. [I]flesh to stone[/I]) or a 5th level non-sorcerer/wizard spell (e.g. [I]raise dead[/I]), and you need [B]both[/B] to restore the victim to life. I'd think it would require two [I]limited wishes[/I] - one to reconstitute the victim into a "petrified statue", and another to restore the statue to life. How about: A creature that has been turned to sand can be restored to life with a [I]wish[/I], [I]miracle[/I], [I]reincarnation[/I] or [I]resurrection[/I] spell - the sand counts as the small portion of a body required for [I]resurrection[/I]. Alternatively, a [I]make whole[/I] spell can turn the pile of sand into a petrified corpse, which can then be turned into a fleshy but still dead body with a [I]stone to flesh[/I] spell, then returned to life with a [I]raise dead[/I] spell. Two carefully worded [I]limited wish[/I] spells can also restore the victim - the first to transform their remains into a petrified body, and the second to return the body to living flesh. Well they certainly seem somewhere in that area. I'd like to give them good Wisdom scores, since that's the key ability of the Druid spells the original version had (our version will use Charisma to actually cast them, of course, as we'd decided earlier on the "can pick druid spells for its sorcerer spellcasting" route).
