Plane Shift (Priest Spell)

When the plane shift spell is cast, the priest moves himself or some other creature to another plane of existence. The recipient of the spell remains in the new plane until sent forth by some like means. If several persons link hands in a circle, up to eight can be affected by the plane shift at the same time.
The material component of this spell is a small, forked metal rod. The size and metal type dictates to which plane of existence, including sub-planes and alternate dimensions, the spell sends the affected creatures. The DM will determine specifics regarding how and what planes are reached.
An unwilling victim must be touched (successful attack roll) to be sent. In addition, the creature is also allowed a saving throw. If the saving throw is successful, the effect of the spell is negated. Note that pinpoint accuracy is rarely achieved; arriving at a random distance from an intended destination is common.
The metal rod is not expended when the spell is cast. Forked rods keyed to certain planes may be difficult to come by, as decided by the DM.
Notes: Common for clerics (PHB).

: 1 The Astral and Ethereal Planes are treated as known Inner Planes for the purposes of research.
: 2 The numbers before the slashes are the cost and time requirements for planes that are generally known by the cam­paign's spellcasters. The numbers after the slashes are the cost and time requirements for destinations about which little is known in the home campaign. All prices are in gold pieces.
: 3 The number is the typical cost in gold pieces for constructing one rod, provided that the proper materials are avail­able. Rods made of extremely rare materials can cost considerably more.
: 4 Add these modifiers to the type of plane the Pocket Dimension is attached to. For example, researching a Pocket Dimension that is attached to the Ethereal Plane costs 2,500 gp and takes 5 weeks. The cost for the rod remains 100 gp.
