This spell creates an area of magical silence around the target.
No sound issues within or penetrates the area of effect.
If cast targeting a creature, a successful save by the target means the spell is instead cast at a point in space one foot behind the creature (or if using a grid, the center of the occupied square).
Creatures or objects targeted by the spell will bring the emanation with them as they move. Objects in the possession of a creature save as would the creature possessing it. If the spell targets a point in space, it is immobile.
This emanation is blocked by 1-ft. of stone, 3-ft. of wood, 1-inch of iron or a thin covering of lead. The material must be contiguous or completely touching (thus the emanation will typically stretch beyond even closed doors—unless the door is iron and so tightly fit to stone walls that all sides are touching).
The emanation is also blocked by any liquid surface. Thus, it will operate above water or underwater, but not both at the same time.Â
Magic Resistance. Creatures with magic resistance gain one magic resistance check when encountering the emanation. If successful, the creature can operate normally, emitting sound and hearing sound. However, no other creature in the emanation will hear them. If the check fails, the spell operates normally.
