Glyph Sphere
Glyph Sphere
The Glyph Sphere revolves around the mastery of language and magical glyphs. Those who use this gift are better able to understand a variety of languages, and read the complex symbology of magical glyphs to both disable them, and create their own.
Mastered Prayers: You master Prayer of Glyph and Comprehend Languages.
Additional Benefit: You gain one bonus Language of your choice (which may include a language from the Uncommon or Extra-Planar list).
Prayer of Glyph
Magic Resistance: No
Basic Divine Prayer
Free Action
Potency: [1d4 + Divine Rank]
Range: 50 ft
Effect: Your deity has granted you the knowledge to sustain its divine power in writing. When you complete the casting of a Divine Prayer, instead of having the effects realized immediately, you may inscribe them into a Glyph upon an item or similar surface. At the time of inscription, you choose the delay time or condition that causes the effects of the prayer to be realized. If the effect is not realized within 10 rounds, the Glyph fades and the Prayer's effect ends.
