This spell helps to discourage predators and trespassers from disturbing a campsite. The caster sprinkles salt in a circle enclosing an area up to 50 feet in diameter. For the duration of the spell, all sounds and scents generated within the circle are muted, making the area less noticeable to those outside the circle. Therefore, the group's chance of encounter is reduced by 50% for the duration of the spell. The spell provides no protection against infravision or other forms of magical detection.
The material components are a hair from a skunk, a whisker from a mouse, and enough salt to make a 50-foot-diameter circle.
Notes: Common for priests with access to the sphere of Travelers (ToM).
