Comprehend Languages
Divination 1 standard action SRD
- Adp 1, APeace 1, Arc 1, Beguiler 1, Brd 1, Clr 1, Commerce 1, EmBarachiel 1, Herald 1, Meditation 1, Mind 1, Sor/Wiz 1, Wuj 1 V, S, M/DF
10 min./level Personal 4 hours
Target: You

You understand all spoken and written languages.

You can understand the spoken words of creatures or read otherwise incomprehensible written messages. In either case, you must touch the creature or the writing. The ability to read does not necessarily impart insight into the material, merely its literal meaning. The spell enables you to understand or read an unknown language, not speak or write it.

Written material can be read at the rate of one page (250 words) per minute. Magical writing cannot be read, though the spell reveals that it is magical. This spell can be foiled by certain warding magic (such as the secret page and illusory script spells). It does not decipher codes or reveal messages concealed in otherwise normal text.

Comprehend languages can be made permanent with a permanency spell.

Owl's Wisdom
Transmutation 1 standard action SRD
Will negates (harmless) - Yes APeace 2, Arc 2, Artificer 2, BVal 2, ChamGwyn 2, Clr 2, Drd 2, Meditation 2, Pal 2, Rgr 2, Sor/Wiz 2 V, S, M/DF
1 min./level Touch 5 minutes
Target: Creature touched

Subject gains +4 to Wis for 1 min./level.

The transmuted creature becomes wiser. The spell grants a +4 enhancement bonus to Wisdom, adding the usual benefit to Wisdom-related skills. Clerics, druids, paladins, and rangers (and other Wisdom-based spellcasters) who receive owls wisdom do not gain any additional bonus spells for the increased Wisdom, but the save DCs for their spells increase.

Locate Object
Divination 1 standard action SRD
None - No Arc 3, Brd 2, Clr 3, Hoard 2, Meditation 3, Shu 2, Sin-A 3, Sor/Wiz 2, Travel 2, Wuj 2 V, S, F/DF
1 min./level Long 30 minutes
Area: Circle, centered on you, with a radius of 400 ft. + 40 ft./level

Senses direction toward object (specific or type).

You sense the direction of a well-known or clearly visualized object. You can search for general items, in which case you locate the nearest one of its kind if more than one is within range. Attempting to find a certain item requires a specific and accurate mental image; if the image is not close enough to the actual object, the spell fails. You cannot specify a unique item unless you have observed that particular item firsthand (not through divination).

The spell is blocked by even a thin sheet of lead. Creatures cannot be found by this spell. Polymorph any object fools it.

Tongues
Divination 1 standard action SRD
Will negates (harmless) - No Adp 3, APeace 4, Arc 4, Brd 2, Clr 4, Commerce 3, Community 4, EmBarachiel 2, Herald 3, Meditation 4, Sor/Wiz 3, Vassal of Bahamut 4, Wuj 3 V, M/DF
10 min./level Touch 1 hour
Target: Creature touched

Speak any language.

This spell grants the creature touched the ability to speak and understand the language of any intelligent creature, whether it is a racial tongue or a regional dialect. The subject can speak only one language at a time, although it may be able to understand several languages. Tongues does not enable the subject to speak with creatures who don't speak. The subject can make itself understood as far as its voice carries. This spell does not predispose any creature addressed toward the subject in any way.

Tongues can be made permanent with a permanency spell.

Spell Resistance
Abjuration 1 standard action SRD
Will negates (harmless) - Yes (harmless) APeace 5, Arc 5, Clr 5, Magic 5, Meditation 5, Protection 5, Shu 5 V, S, DF
1 min./level Touch 30 minutes

Subject gains SR 12 + level.

The creature gains spell resistance equal to 12 + your caster level.

Find the Path
Divination 3 rounds SRD
None or Will negates (harmless) - No or Yes (harmless) Arc 6, Brd 6, Cavern 6, Clr 6, Drd 6, Elf 6, Knowledge 6, Meditation 6, Travel 6 V, S, F
10 min./level Personal or touch 4 hours
Target: You or creature touched

Shows most direct way to a location.

The recipient of this spell can find the shortest, most direct physical route to a specified destination, be it the way into or out of a locale. The locale can be outdoors, underground, or even inside a maze spell. Find the path works with respect to locations, not objects or creatures at a locale. The location must be on the same plane as you are at the time of casting.

The spell enables the subject to sense the correct direction that will eventually lead it to its destination, indicating at appropriate times the exact path to follow or physical actions to take. For example, the spell enables the subject to sense trip wires or the proper word to bypass a glyph of warding. The spell ends when the destination is reached or the duration expires, whichever comes first. Find the path can be used to remove the subject and its companions from the effect of a maze spell in a single round.

This divination is keyed to the recipient, not its companions, and its effect does not predict or allow for the actions of creatures (including guardians).

Spell Turning
Abjuration 1 standard action SRD
- Arc 7, Beguiler 7, Endurance 8, Luck 7, Magic 7, Meditation 7, Retribution 7, Shu 7, Sor/Wiz 7 V, S, M/DF
10 min./level or until expended Personal 4 hours
Target: You

Reflect 1d4+6 spell levels back at caster.

Spells and spell-like effects targeted on you are turned back upon the original caster. The abjuration turns only spells that have you as a target. Effect and area spells are not affected. Spell turning also fails to stop touch range spells.

From seven to ten (1d4+6) spell levels are affected by the turning. The exact number is rolled secretly.

When you are targeted by a spell of higher level than the amount of spell turning you have left, that spell is partially turned. The subtract the amount of spell turning left from the spell level of the incoming spell, then divide the result by the spell level of the incoming spell to see what fraction of the effect gets through. For damaging spells, you and the caster each take a fraction of the damage. For nondamaging spells, each of you has a proportional chance to be affected.

If you and a spellcasting attacker are both warded by spell turning effects in operation, a resonating field is created.

Roll randomly to determine the result.

1 day Close 12 hours
Target: One creature

Subject is immune to mental/emotional magic and scrying.

The subject is protected from all devices and spells that detect, influence, or read emotions or thoughts. This spell protects against all mind-affecting spells and effects as well as information gathering by divination spells or effects. Mind blank even foils limited wish, miracle, and wish spells when they are used in such a way as to affect the subjects mind or to gain information about it. In the case of scrying that scans an area the creature is in, such as arcane eye, the spell works but the creature simply isn't detected. Scrying attempts that are targeted specifically at the subject do not work at all.

Projects you and companions onto Astral Plane.

By freeing your spirit from your physical body, this spell allows you to project an astral body onto another plane altogether.

You can bring the astral forms of other willing creatures with you, provided that these subjects are linked in a circle with you at the time of the casting. These fellow travelers are dependent upon you and must accompany you at all times. If something happens to you during the journey, your companions are stranded wherever you left them.

You project your astral self onto the Astral Plane, leaving your physical body behind on the Material Plane in a state of suspended animation. The spell projects an astral copy of you and all you wear or carry onto the Astral Plane. Since the Astral Plane touches upon other planes, you can travel astrally to any of these other planes as you will. To enter one, you leave the Astral Plane, forming a new physical body (and equipment) on the plane of existence you have chosen to enter.

While you are on the Astral Plane, your astral body is connected at all times to your physical body by a silvery cord. If the cord is broken, you are killed, astrally and physically. Luckily, very few things can destroy a silver cord. When a second body is formed on a different plane, the incorporeal silvery cord remains invisibly attached to the new body. If the second body or the astral form is slain, the cord simply returns to your body where it rests on the Material Plane, thereby reviving it from its state of suspended animation. Although astral projections are able to function on the Astral Plane, their actions affect only creatures existing on the Astral Plane; a physical body must be materialized on other planes.

You and your companions may travel through the Astral Plane indefinitely. Your bodies simply wait behind in a state of suspended animation until you choose to return your spirits to them. The spell lasts until you desire to end it, or until it is terminated by some outside means, such as dispel magic cast upon either the physical body or the astral form, the breaking of the silver cord, or the destruction of your body back on the Material Plane (which kills you).
