Name	Open / Lock
Vocals	"By the power of the elements I move Earth with Air and unfasten that seal – Open" or "…and fasten that seal – Lock"
Range	Touch
Duration	Instantaneous
Cost	1 magic point
Key Words	Lesser / Elemental
Description	This spell instantaneously locks or unlocks a single standard quality lock without requiring a key or lockpicks. It will not function on enchanted locks, or locks made from cold iron. A spellcaster with the Device Proficiency skill can draw on their knowledge of mechanisms to open higher-quality locks with this spell; this consumes one use of their skill as if they had unlocked the lock manually, in addition to the magic cost. Opening a lock magically does not necessarily duplicate the use of the correct key, and may trigger any traps present on the lock. This spell may require the presence of a referee.
Skills	Elemental Spellcasting
