Predict something within the allowed span of days. For things not influenced by humans, like the weather, you get a certainty.

Major calamities always force themselves into your prediction if they are somewhat related to the object of your divination.

[dice]x1 miles self [sum] hours
Small glowing lights flow from your fingertips. They are as bright as a match, but you can always see them, even in bright sunlight or pitch darkness, at any distance up to 1 mile. The lights guide the caster to an object, person, or location that they believe will result in the emotional state named when the spell is cast. If the caster names "love", they will lead to the nearest sexually compatible person of similar age. If the caster names "joy" they might lead to a well of nitrous oxide, or to a pile of treasure, or to a crude goblin joke scrawled on a wall. The lights are not malicious, but they are not very clever.
R: T: D:
[dice]x100' area Instant
You send a nebulous cloud of glowing smoke along a clearly defined path. Any light debris on the path (snow, small stones, leaves, grass) is pushed to the side. The smoke thrums and sticks to tripwires without activating them and seeps into the gaps between pressure plates and the surrounding surfaces. You do not have to be able to see the entire path, but you do need to know the approximate route the smoke will take. The smoke provides a dim, lingering light along the course of the path as it travels down and will follow natural bends but halt at intersections. The path is [dice]x10' wide. If you cast this spell with 3 [dice] or more, the range becomes [sum]x100'.
R: T: D:
Touch object 1 minute
Letters appear over the object you Touch, spelling out the name of the object's owner or owners. If the object has no owners, the spell fails. If you invest 2 [dice] the spell will also show if the ownership is disputed. Dead people cannot dispute ownership. If you invest 3 [dice], arrows will appear pointing in the approximate direction of the owner (or a skull will appear if they are deceased). The name revealed will be name the owner used when they purchased or acquired the object. For example, if Tabitha Winklewort was using her alias "Jane Crow" when she bought her boots, the name listed would be Jane Crow. If you targeted a ring she stole and invested 2 [dice] or more, the names listed would be Jane Crow and Baron Summerland. If you invest 4 [dice], true names will be listed alongside aliases, provided the owners are mortal. This spell also works on slaves and domesticated animals.

R: T: D:
50' [dice[ creatures or objects 10 minutes
Non-living object closes and becomes locked. If the object is a door, chest, or similar object, it will slam shut, dealing [sum] damage to any creature passing through it and then trapping them. This spell works on things that aren't technically portals (for example, a sword could be locked in its scabbard). Requires Str 10 + [dice]x4 to open. Alternatively, this spell can be cast on a creature's orifice. The creature gets a Save to resist, and another Save at the end of each of its turns.
Duration: Permanent until dispelled As with a Hold Portal spell, but it is permanent until dispelled. Creatures with magic resistance can shatter the spell without effort. Any Magic-user three levels or higher than the caster can open the portal, and a Knock spell will open it as well (although the spell is not permanently destroyed in these cases.)

You will an object to raise, lower, or hover. You cannot move the object horizontally, and you cannot move it more than 10' per round. Maximum weight is [dice]x250 lbs. Lasts as long as you concentrate, but you take 1D6 psychic damage per round after [dice]x3 rounds.

R: T: D:
Touch [sum] objects concentration or 1 minute

You touch and enchant a piece of metal to make a terrific noise the next time it strikes a solid surface or is struck. All creatures within 30' (except you) must Save or be deafened for 1 minute. If used as a signal, it can be heard up to a mile away.
R: T: D:

R: 30' T: [sum]*100 coins D: [dice] hours
Coins will leap up and obey your single-word commands. Affects all unattended coins in 30' of you and lasts 1 hour. Coins can be commanded to follow you, hide in crevices, or serve as rollers for heavy statues, but they are mindless and feeble.
R: Touch T: Object D: 0
An object made of stone, clay, metal, wood, or fiber can be repaired, restoring it to the state before it was damaged. The size of the object that can be mended is dependent on the [dice] invested.
- 1D: Can be held in the hand.
- 2D: Can be held in both hands.
- 3D: Waist height.
- 4D: As big as a person.
Using this spell a second time on the same object carries a 1-in-6 chance of breaking the object completely, increasing by 1 each time it is mended. Complex items (clockwork, etc) begin with a 3-in-6 chance of breaking upon casting.
