This ward is cast upon a human skull. The mage inscribes arcane runes upon the surface of the skull, then places it where he wishes it to take effect. The skull detects living beings with a divination magic of 19. When a detected creature passes by the skull, it’s jaw opens and the skull emits a piercing, unearthly scream. The spell makes an intimidation attack. Compare the Effect Value to the Spirit or intimidation value of any creatures within range. The spell is intended to scare unwelcome visitors away. Necromancers will often cast this spell on several skulls, scattering them about the entrance of their laboratories. The sound emitted by this unholy chorus is truly terrifying.(Apply Many-on-One bonuses if more than one skull is active)
