Unbend Sigil

The Unbend enchantment replaces the Unbend spell that was once planned.
It attempts to nullify all light-based spells in the area and restore natural lighting conditions when used.

The Unbend enchantment, or "Unbend Sigil" as it is more frequently called, is a magic device created by a Moon Mage for the purpose of nullifying light based spells within a certain area. By light based spells we can assume that most, if not all, of the spells from the Moonlight Manipulation book would be subject to its effects.
In reality, this is not the case. Several of the spells in the Moonlight Manipulation book are instantaneous, or of a nature that they do not actively alter light within the room itself. Plus there is currently one Stellar spell that is subject to the effects of unbend.

The spells that actually are susceptible to Unbend at this time are: Shadows, Focus Moonbeam, Refractive Field, Tezirah's Veil and Shadewatch Mirror.

Materials Required:

*1 Enchanter's Burin
*1,000 coppers worth of currency. You may use other coins as long as they are of the same type of metal and denomination. (For example, 1000 copper Kronars, 100 bronze Lirums, 10 silver Dokoras, or 1 gold Kronar will all work)
*A source for the Celestial sigil of Durgaulda, either from a scroll or the planet itself. (Note: You have to be 49th Circle to be able to STUDY Durgaulda)
*A spell capable of powering (activating) sigils. (Shadows, Dazzle, Unleash)
*A conjunctive closing sigil. (This can be any sigil, but only certain ones will create working Unbend Sigils. See table below for details.)

Instructions:

1. Find an area that is not likely to be frequented by other players, but at the same time allows you to perform any needed enchanting actions. (Such as observing the sky, casting spells, etc...)

2. 'Spell up' with Seer's Sense, Clear Vision, Piercing Gaze and Aura Sight. This step is optional.

3. STUDY either Durgaulda, or a Durgaulda sigil scroll, until you manage to memorize the sigil.

4. Drop the coin(s) that equal 1,000 copper on the ground. Again, this can be in bronze, silver, etc. *Important Note: Unless this bug has been fixed, the finished sigil will weigh the as much as the amount of coins you dropped, so I STRONGLY urge that you stick with silver or gold coins.

5. SCRIBE COIN(s) while holding your Enchanter's Burin in your right hand. Doing this turns the coins into a 'sigil'. Depending on what type of coins you used, you may get a copper, bronze, silver, or gold sigil. (or even platinum if you wish to waste the coins to make one)

6. Pick up the 'sigil' that is now laying on the ground.

7. STUDY a moon, or any other celestial body, to complete the Unbend Sigil by adding another sigil and creating a conjunctive sigil. The type of sigil you use will determine what type of Unbend Sigil you end up with. See table below.

8. SCRIBE MY SIGIL while holding your Enchanter's Burin in your right hand, and the platinum sigil in your left. If you fail to scribe the sigil go back to step 7.

9. Activate the sigil by casting either Shadows, Dazzle or Unleash on the platinum sigil. If the sigil fades before you manage to activate it, you will need to go back to step 7.

10. FOCUS MY SIGIL two or more times until you finally, permanently bind it. If the sigil fades, go back to step 7. If you succeed in binding the sigil, congratulations, you have just made an Unbend Sigil.

Types of Unbend Sigils, and what they do:

I list only the moons since they are easily figured out. The rest I leave to you to discover.

**One of these will eventually 'unbend' something other than Shadows (I believe a spell from another Guild), currently there is no way to know which one will do this.
*>rub sigil
You rub your platinum sigil and notice a slight tingle as light is discharged.

Using an Unbend Sigil:

In order to use an Unbend Sigil, you simply have to drop it on the ground (Like the Devourer). DROP MY SIGIL, and you will see something like the following:

As you drop your platinum sigil, it makes a high-pitched whistle and then explodes into a thousand multicolored splinters.

You sense a massively powerful wave of Lunar mana pulse through the area, originating at the point where the platinum sigil fell.

You notice the shadows about you lightening, making it harder to conceal yourself. <--- Shadows was nullified here

A red moonbeam is ripped to semi-transparent shreds and vanishes. <--- A moonbeam was nullified here.

You sense that was your Yavash moonbeam dissipating. <--- This tells you the prior moonbeam destroyed was yours!

A pale red moonbeam is ripped to semi-transparent shreds and vanishes. <--- Another moonbeam was nullified here.
