Anam Speaker

Anam Speaker: 

A spell that connects the dead to the living. The caster creates a circle made of ash, soot or ground coal with different ornate symbols inside it, then they must sit for five minutes and concentrate on who they wish to speak to. Those around the caster when this ritual is taking place can also speak to the spirit and see them if the spirit appears.

The spirit can appear in one of three ways depending on how the caster wishes to have them in the world: 

1) They come through in nature, either through the wind, animals, water or leaves. 

2) They come through in the caster voice. The caster's voice sounds as though their voice is layered with the spirits over theirs and the spirit has control of their voice. 

3) They come through in the shape of their body with some of their features, however, are entirely comprised of a light (choice of colour by caster) and can only speak through the voice of the caster, the spirits taking over the casters.  

4) The caster uses the dead body of another to channel the spirit's voice. 

The caster then has to roll a D20 to see how long they can speak to this spirit for:

(Advantage if the caster has a belonging of the spirit they wish to speak too) 

1 - 5: The caster has two minutes 

6 - 10: The caster has four minutes 

11 - 15: The caster has six minutes 

16 - 18: The caster has eight minutes 

19 - 20: The caster has ten minutes 

As the caster is taking part in the spell, they are blinded and all concentration is on summoning the spirit. The Caster or people watching can ask the spirit questions however they may not answer. If they knew the spirit when they were alive, the connection is stronger and they're much more likely to answer the questions. After the amount of time is used up, the link between the worlds are lost and the spell stops.

At level 7, add your wisdom modifier to your D20 roll .
