Summoning Wind (Wizard Spell)

This spell causes a magical wind to carry an urgent message to one or more creatures. When cast, the wu jen can phrase any message of 25 words or less. This message can then be sent to any creature or creatures. The number of creatures that can be contacted is 10 times the level of the caster. The specific identity of each creature need not be known, but some type of common identifier must be provided. This must be more specific than the creature's race or character class. It must be some identifier of the position of the creature or crea­tures called. The wu jen could send the message to the soldiers of his palace guard or to the governors of all the provinces of a single land. The message is delivered on a gentle breeze, whispering its se­crets into the ears of those it is intended for. The spell does not compel the receiver to respond or act. It only informs them of the message sent. This spell is commonly used to rally troops, send warn­ings, or disseminate proclamations.
Notes: Common in oriental settings; other­wise, very rare.
