===== Hero's Grave =====

School transmutation; Level cleric 3, (Clerics of 'death' gods only)

  * **CASTING**
  * Casting Time 1 Hour
  * Components V, S, M (see text)

  * **EFFECT**
  * Range touch
  * Target 1 Tomb or grave stone
  * Duration Instant
  * Saving Throw None

**DESCRIPTION**

This spell allows you to consecrate a resting place fit for a hero by incorporating one item (that is personal to the deceased) into the material of the tomb or gravestone. After an hour of prayer the item embeds itself into the fabric of the tomb, in such a way that it is visible, but is also clearly a part of the tomb. For instance, a sword laid on top of a grave slab might sink (slightly) into the stone so as to still be visible but is also an embedded part of the material of the tomb.

Note: A spell such as Dispel Magic or Rock to Mud is required to remove the item from the tomb.
Material Component: One item that was significant to the deceased.
