Mimicry (Illusion/Phantasm) _ (Song)
Level: 2
Range: 60 yds. + 10 yds./level
Components: V, S
Casting Time: 2
Duration: 2 rds./level
Area of Effect: Special
Saving Throw: Special
When a wizard casts this spell, he gains the ability to perfectly mimic the sounds made by any animal or monster he knows, or the specific vocal inflection and accent of any person known to him. He cannot duplicate special sound-based attacks such as an androsphinx’s roar or a harpy’s song, but almost any other kind of call, roar, or sound can be duplicated.
The area of effect includes all characters within hearing range. Characters who actively disbelieve in the sound are allowed a saving throw vs. spell; if successful, they hear the wizard’s own, unaltered voice.
Notes: Uncommon for illusionists; otherwise very rare. (Updated from POLYHEDRON Newszine.)
