Permits communication with the dead, so that the caster can ask questions and receive knowledge which that creature would have known in life.
Which dead creatures may be communicated with, and for how long, is determined by the level of the cleric — only high level clerics may communicate with the long dead. See the following table:
| level | time dead | no. of questions | length of answers |
|---|---|---|---|
| 5 to 6 | 1 week | 2 | 15 seconds |
| 7 to 8 | 1 month | 3 | 30 seconds |
| 9 to 11 | 1 year | 4 | 45 seconds |
| 12 to 14 | 10 years | 5 | 1 minute |
| 15 to 17 | 100 years | 6 | 90 seconds |
| 18 to 20 | 1,000 years | 7 | 2 minutes |
| 21 or more | 10,000 years | 8 | 3 minutes |
The dead who speaks will give meaningful information for the length of their answer, limited only by the dead having none to give; if the dead does ramble somewhat in their answers, the substance will still equal the ‘length of answer’ described above.
