The Hearth of the Covenant (from Cath'rinne) Despite the name, this item is actually a one foot diamater hickory-and-brass carving of a sun, made to be hanged on a wall. If the hearth touches a wall, it produces a warm heat that rapidly spreads through the structure to envelop it. Any laboratory in the structure receives the Magical Heating virtue (Free, +1 Health, +1 Aesthetics, +1 Ignem). If used in a general covenant area, the maximum cost saving is 5 MP per year for consumables. Effect Level 25: CrIg 20 spell (Base 2, +1 Touch, +2 Sun, +3 Structure), +3 environmental trigger, +2 three uses per day

Wand of Blunting a charge
MuTe 20
R: Voice, D: Diam, T: Group
(Based on Blunting the Iron's Bite, MoH p. 50). This wooden wand (made from Linden wood) is activated with a verbal command word and gesture pointing towards the direction of the target. When activated, the effect warps and blunts the blades of a group hopelessly. The affected weapons has their total damage (including Attack Advantage) reduced to half (round up). The weapons return to their undamaged state once the Duration expires. This enchantment was designed without Penetration, as such, these weapons are unable to penetrate Parma Magica or the might of a creature for the duration of the spell.
(Base 1, +2 voice, +1 Diam, +2 affect metal, +2 group)
There are seven such wands, each holding a single charge.
If any magi already knows any of these spells or have included them in their lab texts please let me know.

Books | 1 | Auram Tractatus Q11 |
Lab Texts | 0 | 1 Lab Text (up to level 20) Ward Against Rain (ReAu10) |
Nyriu, why take a lab text for a spell your character already knows?
I had messed up the dowry table.
Personell is split into grogs and specialists, so it is either 2 grogs or 2 specialists. The silver amount has also been increased.
And as John says, you want to take a text for a spell you want to learn. Or for an item you want to make.
You could invent ward vs rain without the lab text. Pick something at level 20 that you would have trouble inventing without the text (Any Auram except Creo, any Creo except Auram etc.)
Kept for reference. The dowries have been compiled into the resources above.
Rubellius dowry items
