Rary's Aptitude Appropriator (Wizard Spell)

By using this spell, the wizard can temporar­ily acquire the ability to use a non-weapon profi­ciency known to another creature. The caster must touch the creature already possessing the desired skill. If the creature is willing to transfer its knowledge of the proficiency, the transfer takes place without difficulty. If the creature is unwilling to transfer the proficiency, the crea­ture receives to a saving throw vs. spell to pre­vent the transfer from occurring. The creature touched does not lose its knowledge of the pro­ficiency, the spell merely allows the caster to know the proficiency as well.
Only non-weapon proficiencies can be trans­ferred. Other skills, abilities, powers, or types of knowledge are not transferred. The wizard's level of ability with the proficiency is exactly that of the original owner, even if the appropri­ate ability for the proficiency differs between the caster and creature. The proficiency is gained for one turn per level of the caster.
