Impenetrable Falsehood

This spell makes any untruth spoken by the caster or a touched spell recipient being sound convincing and hides all untruths from a detect lie spell, similar magics, related spell-like abilities, and even the discernment of specialty priests of Tyr. It also foils ESP and other mind-reading magics or psionic abilities that could reveal a lie, hiding true thoughts behind random ruminations on two or three topics mentally chosen by the caster as the spell is cast (for example, the possible whereabouts of a half-remembered stream that must have been somewhere hereabouts, how soon the next apple crop might be ready, and the name of a particular merchant met years ago in a tavern,* and seen from afar down a crowded street just a tenday ago).

Notes: Granted by Leira, Lady of Mists, of the Forgotten Realms setting.
