Key Words Lesser Elemental
Description This spell locks or unlocks a single standard quality lock, at range and without requiring a key or lockpicks. It will not function on enchanted locks, or locks made from cold iron.

A spellcaster with the Device Mastery 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. Note that opening a lock magically doesn’t necessarily duplicate the use of the correct key, and may e.g. trigger any traps present on the lock. This spell may require the presence of a referee.
