Days of Old Augury

Augury is the ability to understand that something is going to happen soon through portents, or natural occurrences around him. In order to perform augury, the augur decides that he is doing so. He will stop and take a deep breath and allow nature to tell him what he needs to know. This could be anything, from the movement of animals and branches to the changing of the wind to clouds or shapes in the ripples of water. Augury also works with sounds, so the augur does not need to be able to see.
The augur only has to do this for one minute, at the end of which time he makes a roll on his Augury skill. The result of the roll shows how important the information is. An augur may only use his ability once per day, and unlike Divination there is no reroll. Following are some examples.
*Poor: "It begins to rain gently for a moment, and you feel peaceful. Today will be a good journey."
*Fair: "You hear a babbling brook in the distance, and you swear you hear the word 'Andarion' among its other sounds."
*Good: "You see a few small animals retreating from the west. Something dangerous might be growing in power in that direction."
*Excellent: "The wind begins to move around you, steadily heading to the northeast. Whatever you need to find, you are sure you will discover it in that direction."
