Silver Tongue and Starry Eyes

This spell, whimsically named silver tongue and starry eyes, enables a priestess of Lurue to add another potential worshiper to Lurue's herd. This spell is only effective on creatures of animal intelligence. If the target fails its saving throw vs. spell (which cannot be voluntarily forgone), its intelligence is permanently boosted by 2d6 points and it is permanently granted the capacity of speech intelligible to humans and demihumans, typically acquiring the common tongue of humans immediately through the magic of this spell (or possibly Elvish, if the caster is an elf or half-elf).

There is a 1% chance per level of the spellcaster chat the increase in sentience and the acquired capacity for speech will breed true in succeeding generation. This chance is doubled if both parents have been similarly augmented.

The material components for this spell are the priestess's holy symbol and a mall vial of water gathered from the River Rauvin at Silverymoon Ford within the past fortnight.

Notes: Granted by the sylvan deity Lurue the Unicom Queen of the Forgotten Realms setting.
