Whispering Wind

Whispering Wind
Ritual Rank 2
Prerequisites: Elemental or Eldritch Rank 1
Potency: 10
Components: a small amount of smoke, such as from a campfire [Common]
Focus: A tiny folded fan [Uncommon, Value: 1sp]
Cost: 1 Resolve Burn
Cast Time: 1 moment
Effect: As you finish the ritual a small zephyr of wind emerges from the smoke, swirling about in a small whirlwind.
  • You whisper (or make some other sound) for up to 10 seconds or 50 words (whichever comes first) to the zephyr and it carries your message to a distant location or person familiar to you.
  • The wind must have a path to its destination, but otherwise moves with great speed, up to 30 miles per hour (at your option you may slow the wind down to as little as 1 mile per hour).
  • The Whispering Wind is unnoticed until it reaches its final location. When the wind arrives at the designated person or location it swirls about for 1 round and then delivers the message (or sound) as a quiet whisper.
  • Everyone within 10ft of the wind can hear the sound, those more distant must make a Listen check [DC 10, adjust for distance]. *The whispers are too distorted to trigger command words or other magical effects.
