# Guards and Wards
|
||
|
|
*6th-level, Abjuration*
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- **Casting time:** 10 minute
|
||
|
|
- **Range:** Touch
|
||
|
|
- **Components:** V, S, burning incense, a small measure of brimstone and oil, a knotted string, a small amount of umber hulk blood, and a small silver rod worth at least 10 gp
|
||
|
|
- **Duration:** 24 hour
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
You create a ward that protects up to 2,500 square feet of floor space (an area 50 feet square, or one hundred 5-foot squares or twenty-five 10-foot squares). The warded area can be up to 20 feet tall, and shaped as you desire. You can ward several stories of a stronghold by dividing the area among them, as long as you can walk into each contiguous area while you are casting the spell.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
When you cast this spell, you can specify individuals that are unaffected by any or all of the effects that you choose. You can also specify a password that, when spoken aloud, makes the speaker immune to these effects.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Guards and wards creates the following effects within the warded area.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Corridors
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Fog fills all the warded corridors, making them heavily obscured. In addition, at each intersection or branching passage offering a choice of direction, there is a 50% chance chance that a creature other than you will believe it is going in the opposite direction from the one it chooses.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Doors
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
All doors in the warded area are magically locked, as if sealed by an [arcane lock](compendium/spells/arcane-lock.md) spell. In addition, you can cover up to ten doors with an illusion (equivalent to the illusory object function of the [minor illusion](compendium/spells/minor-illusion.md) spell) to make them appear as plain sections of wall.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Stairs
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Webs fill all stairs in the warded area from top to bottom, as the [web](compendium/spells/web.md) spell. These strands regrow in 10 minutes if they are burned or torn away while guards and wards lasts.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Other Spell Effect
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
You can place your choice of one of the following magical effects within the warded area of the stronghold.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- Place [dancing lights](compendium/spells/dancing-lights.md) in four corridors. You can designate a simple program that the lights repeat as long as guards and wards lasts.
|
||
|
|
- Place [magic mouth](compendium/spells/magic-mouth.md) in two locations.
|
||
|
|
- Place [stinking cloud](compendium/spells/stinking-cloud.md) in two locations. The vapors appear in the places you designate; they return within 10 minutes if dispersed by wind while guards and wards lasts.
|
||
|
|
- Place a constant [gust of wind](compendium/spells/gust-of-wind.md) in one corridor or room.
|
||
|
|
- Place a [suggestion](compendium/spells/suggestion.md) in one location. You select an area of up to 5 feet square, and any creature that enters or passes through the area receives the suggestion mentally.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The whole warded area radiates magic. A [dispel magic](compendium/spells/dispel-magic.md) cast on a specific effect, if successful, removes only that effect.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
You can create a permanently guarded and warded structure by casting this spell there every day for one year.
