Imbue will allow the caster to imbue foraged sticks, wiregrass, or other natural, organic material to create an imbedable rod, wand, bracelet/anklet, or amulet. Training in spiritual mana control and the ranger spell circle increases success rates and chance of creating a rod instead of a wand. Spiritual Lore, Summoning increases the amount of mana that can be imbedded in items.

Messaging

Failure messaging:

Your body suddenly fills with a tingling sensation as you feel power from your surroundings channeling through your body and into the bark. After a few moments, the tree bark begins to heat in your hand! Just before it becomes almost unbearable, you feel the surge of power end, leaving you drained. You feel the process has not been finished.

Failure messaging:

Your body suddenly fills with a tingling sensation as great power from your surroundings channels through your body! Suddenly, you feel the bark reject the change, and the power flows back through you! You quickly end the spell and let it dissipate harmlessly.

Success messaging:

Your body suddenly fills with a tingling sensation as you feel great power from your surroundings channeling through you and into the bark. Suddenly, there is a blinding flash of light! As the surge of power ends, you feel the bark has changed somehow.

Major Failure:

You gesture at a dark stick.
Your body suddenly fills with a tingling sensation as you feel great power from your surroundings channeling through your body! Suddenly, you feel the a dark stick reject the change, and the power flows back through you! You are unable to stop the spell in time!
   ... 40 points of damage!
   Arcing bolt of electricity snaps through neck as if it wasn't there and now it really isn't. Instant Death.
You return to normal color.
