The word of recall spell takes the priest instantly back to his sanctuary when the word is uttered. The sanctuary must be specifically designated in advance by the priest and must be a well-known place. The actual point of arrival is a designated area no larger than 10′ X 10′. The priest can be transported any distance, from above or below ground. Transportation by the word of recall spell is safe within a plane, but for each plane the priest is removed, there is a 10% cumulative chance that the priest is irrevocably lost. The priest is able to transport, in addition to himself, 25 pounds of weight per experience level. Thus, a 15th-level priest could transport his person and an additional 375 pounds weight. This extra matter can be equipment, treasure, or even living material, such as an other person. Exceeding this limit causes the spell to fail. Note that unusually strong physical fields (e.g., magnetic, gravitational) or magical forces can, at the DM’s option, make the use of this spell hazardous or impossible.
