Casting Time: 10 minutes
Range: Personal
Target: You
Duration: Instantaneous

You receive a powerful vision of the future.

A prophecy can tell you whether a particular action within the next year will bring good or bad results for you in the future. The base chance for receiving a meaningful reply is 80% + 1% per caster level, to a maximum of 99%; this roll is made secretly. A question may be so straightforward that a successful result is automatic, or so vague as to have no chance of success. If the prophecy succeeds, you get one of four results:

• Weal (if the action will probably bring good results).
• Woe (for bad results).
• Weal and woe (for both).
• Nothing (for actions that don't have especially good or bad results).

If the spell fails, you get the "nothing" result. A caster who gets the "nothing" result has no way to tell whether it was the consequence of a failed or successful prophecy.

Material Component: incense worth at least 100gp.

Focus: a set of marked sticks, bones, or similar tokens of at least 25gp value.


PROTECTION FROM IMBALANCE (Abjuration)

PUSH (Evocation) [Force]
You push your target away.
Level: Beg 2, Sor/Wiz 2
Components: V, S
Casting Time: 1 standard action
Range: Close (25ft + 5ft/2 levels)
Target: One creature
Saving Throw: None
Spell Resistance: Yes

You shove your enemy back with a pulse of force.

The target of push is subjected to a bull rush attempt made by an invisble pulse of force. For the purposes of the opposing Strength checks associated with a bull rush, the pulse of force is considered to have a Strength score equal to the spell's DC and to be of your size category. For a 10th-level caster, the bolt is considered one size category larger than you; at 20th-level, it is considered two size categories larger. The maximum number of feet you can push the target back is equal to the spell's range, even if the result of the opposing Strength checks would indicate a greater distance.

If you succeed at your bull rush attempt, the target also suffers 1d4 points of nonlethal damage per two caster level (maximum 10d4).

For example, a push spell cast by a Medium sorcerer with a Charisma of 18 and targeting a Medium creature would attempt its bull rush with a Strength of 16 (10 + spell level 2 + Charisma modifier 4) and deal 2d4 points of nonlethal damage at 5th level, a Strength of 20 (base DC 16 + size modifier 4) and deal 5d4 points of nonlethal damage at 10th level, and a Strength of 24 (base DC 16 + size modifier 8)and deal 10d4 points of nonlethal damage at 20th level.
