Description: A dream spell is a form of limited wish, but it has far more limited scope. The illusionist must actually find a comfortable place to rest, lie prone, compose his or her thoughts so as to concentrate upon the desired result, and then do to sleep. If he or she has an undisturbed sleep of not less than 8hours duration, the dream magic will effectuate 1 to 12 hours thereafter. Typical things which can be brought about by a dream are:
Recovery of an individual’s lost hit points
Restoration of a body member such as a hand or foot
Success in locating some object not heavily guarded by magic ward and protection
Discovery of a means to ingress or egress
Location of a safe path through a wilderness
Improvement of chances for gaining a rich treasure
Approximate strength of enemy/opponent forces.
Note: if a creature has 7+ hit dice, it may make a saving throw vs. spell.
If successful, it will be undetected by the dream, and might furthermore sense the illusionist as if detecting invisible.
It might be noted that a dream is not an ultra-powerful spell, and the results must be strictly limited. The guide given above denotes the maximum capability of the casting of the dream spell. Results will never exceed these parameters on a permanent basis. If, for example, a dead companion, slain in recent battle, were dreamed alive, he or she would remain living for but 1 turn per level of the caster. Thereafter, the dweomer would disappear, the companion would return to his or her previous state, and a more permanent form of magic would be needed to allow the lost individual to actually live fully again.
A dream spell cannot be affected by an extension or permanency spell. The illusionist can use this spell but once per week. If it is cast twice within the same week, the spell will absolutely fail the second time and the illusionist will age 1 – 10 years.
