Improved Magic Mouth (Wizard Spell)

This spell works in all ways like the 2nd-level wizard spell magic mouth, except as fol­lows. When this spell is cast, the mouth is endowed with the bard's current knowledge, Intelligence, and personality. When the prede­termined event occurs that activates the mouth, it converses as if the bard were actually there. For example, the mouth might say, “Who goes there?” and wait for a reply. If the visitors announce their names, it could go on to say, “Tamak, please proceed to the music room, while the rest wait in the sitting room.” The mouth lasts until the conversation is over.
Although the mouth can be set to activate due to a visual stimulus (that is, activate if anyone wearing a green feather approaches the castle gate), once triggered, it reacts only to sounds and speech. Also note that the mouth and the bard are not linked in any way. Once cast, the mouth's knowledge is set and will not change. Thus, if a bard is extremely angry at Tamak when he casts an improved magic mouth, the mouth will remain in a state of anger, even if the bard and Tamak have reconciled.
Notes: Common for bards; otherwise rare.
