And this is easily the best resource I have ever had a hand in bringing to life.

The light thus created is pale and wan, and dilutes vision mostly to black and white. Full visual acuity is possible only out to a range of 10 yards, but general identification can be made out to 20 yards. Stationary figures can be made out at 40 yards, and movement detected out to 80 yards.

It has no physical existence, and does not hinder nor harm those passing through it. It does, however, block the passage of sight and sound from one side to the other, assuming that the spell is not cast in such a way (such as in a field of grass) which would otherwise allow sound to move around the edges of the wall. text/html 2009-09-02T17:24:22-08:00 Peter Cobcroft http://www.curufea.com/hero/doku.php/resources:gp:create_bone_golem Create Bone Golem With this extensive ritual, the character can take an intact skeleton (from either a whole corpse, or one the caster has wired togther himself) and animate it with the help of certain alchemical formulae and incantations.
