Message is a spell that empowers the caster to transmit a confidential communication to a recipient within the spell's effective radius. The caster must possess knowledge of the recipient's presence within the spell's range and be familiar with the recipient's identity; this spell cannot be used to send messages to unidentified individuals.

It's not necessary for the caster to see the recipient or even to know the precise direction required. The message is not limited by geography or physical obstructions; it may pass freely through rock, water or other material, and may be sent into the ethereal plane.
The length of the message may not exceed 20 words per round — though a player character may request the use of a timer if they feel they can do better than this speed. The recipient, upon receiving the message, is empowered to give a "yes" or "no" answer in response, which will be heard by the caster. No other persons, except the caster and recipient, will be able to hear the message. It will be evident to an observer of the caster, however, that a spell is being employed.
