Silent Alarm (Wizard Spell)

Combining elements of the spells magic mouth, message, and ESP, this spell creates a magical alarm around the affected object. This spell is often keyed to alert the owner of the es­tablishment or the guardian of the site if his property or charge is disturbed.
When a specified event occurs, the dweomer is triggered. For example, the event might be the approach of an unauthorized person, an attempt to open a chest without the key, or the casting of a spell within 10 feet of the object.
When triggered, a pre-slated telepathic mes­sage is immediately sent to a person specified at the time of casting-up to 25 words. The mes­sage is strong enough to wake the person from a deep sleep and is repeated twice, but does not cross planar boundaries.
The wizard must have the person to be alerted and any individuals that are to be specif­ically authorized (or excluded) at hand; if these persons cannot be physically present, a lock of hair or similar personal effect suffices. The silent alarm remains in place until triggered or dispelled.
The material component is a button, and a strand of hair from each person involved in the spell.
Notes: Rare spell.
