Reopened Gate

This spell is useful only to fiends or other creatures that already have an innate gate spell-like power. Most such beings have a limit on the ability - some can gate three times per day, others once per hour, and so on.

When cast, reopened gate gives the wizard another chance at using his gate power, even if he's already used It the maximum number of times in a given time period. 'Course, the spell doesn't guarantee that the subsequent gate attempt will be successful: it just lets the caster try.

For example, a chasme normally can use its gate ability three times per day. After casting reopened gate, the fiend can try to use the power again during the same day.

Note that some flends - like alu-fiends and cambions - don't have an innate gate power. They gain nothing by casting this spell.
