description: when this spell is cast, the 1st lvl spell that the caster begins to cast the next round will be "channeled"" to another spell user of the channeling realm. the ""channeled"" spell is transmitted to the other spell user when it would normally take effect, and must be used by him immediately. all normal restrictions on the transmitted spell apply. the caster of the transmitter must be able to see the receiver or know exactly where he is (direction and distance, or specific place). the receiver must know exactly when the spell is coming. for example, if a cleric was at a certain altar at a certain time (midnight of full moon) ready to receive a spell; then another spell user or deity could use channels to send him a spell (if he knew where the altar was and the correct time)." |
