Speak to enchanted
allows the caster to speak the language of any enchanted creature within
range. The creature must speak its language and the caster tries to mimic it
while casting the spell. The mage touches his ears and throat while his voice
begins to sound more and more like the enchanted’s. Compare the spell's effect
value to the language's difficulty (normally in the 12 to 22 difficulty range,
depending upon the creature). Add the result points to the caster's Perception
for purposes of the language skill (if unskilled, the caster gains language
for the duration of the spell). Only the mage can understand or speak with any
enchanted creature of that type within 40 meters. The mage must concentrate on
the language during the spell and may not confer with his companions.
