Hallucinatory Sound

You direct, and its like an unseen orchestra is playing.

Level: 2	Component Cost: 10 gp
Category: Deception	Market Price: 40 gp
Time: 1 minute	Key Skill: Arcana
Duration: 4 hours

You can create illusory sounds in an area. You cannot remove existing sounds, and all the sounds you create must originate in the area. You cannot create sounds of deafening or damaging volume.

A creature can make an Insight roll against a DC of 10 + your Arcana skill modifier to perceive the illusion, but only if it has had some clue to the illusory nature of the terrain or has interacted with it in some fashion. The DC of the Insight check is the Arcana check for the ritual, and once the check succeeds, the creature can hear through the illusion from then on.

The effect has a range of 20 and covers a burst with a size depending on the Arcana check.

Arcana Check Result	Area
9 or lower	Burst 2
10-19	Burst 5
20-29	Burst 10
30-39	Burst 20
40 or higher	Burst 40
