Blaenther's Bowls

This spell teleports small nonliving items placed on one surface to another. It creates a dimensional linkage between the two surfaces, each of which must be smaller in surface area than the caster's body and separated by no more than 100 feet per level of the caster after the spell is cast. (The surfaces must be within 20 yards when the spell is first cast.) The caster must have touched both surfaces with his or her bare flesh at some time before the spell is cast.

Items to be transported must fit totally on or within the enchanted surfaces. Each surface can send one item per round to the other, and a particular Blaenther's bowls spell can send an item only one way; it must be picked up and set down again on the destination surface to return to its origination surface. When dealing with a sequence of items to be transported, the first item to be placed on a surface is transported first. If many items are on a surface, the one that has been there longest is transported before the others; for items with identical seniority, randomly determine which moves first. Items that are too large are not sent, nor are those held by a living or dead being. Living or undead substances touching the linked surfaces are not sent. Either linked surface can be moved without breaking the magic, so long as the two never part more than 100 feet per caster level.

This spell was devised long ago by Blaenther Oldryn, a priest of Waukeen. Blaenther used this spell as most priests do today: to whisk coin offerings from a bowl to an inner area and to send scrolls, weapons, and needed items to clergy members stationed by the bowl as requested (by prewritten notes dropped into the bowl or by signal gongs).

The material components are a pinch of gold dust, a spiral of fine wire, and a carved ivory or bone arrow of any size with arrowheads at both ends.
