This spell makes certain other spells permanent. Depending on the spell, the character must be at least a minimum level and must expend a number of XP.

The character can make these spells permanent in regard to his or her self:

Spell	Minimum Level	XP Cost
Comprehend languages	9th	500 XP
Darkvision	10th	1,000 XP
Detect magic	9th	500 XP
Protection from arrows	11th	1,500 XP
Read magic	9th	500 XP
See invisibility	10th	1,000 XP
Tongues	11th	1,500 XP

The character casts the desired spell and then follows it with the permanency spell. The character cannot cast these spells on other creatures. This application of permanency can be dispelled only by a caster of greater level than the character was when the character cast the spell.

In addition to personal use, permanency can be used to make the following spells permanent on him or herself, another creature, or an object (as appropriate):

Spell	Minimum Level	XP Cost
Enlarge	9th	500 XP
Magic fang	9th	500 XP
Resistance	9th	250 XP

Additionally, the following spells can be cast upon objects or areas only and rendered permanent:

Spell	Minimum Level	XP Cost
Alarm	9th	500 XP
Dancing lights	9th	500 XP
Ghost sound	9th	500 XP
Gust of wind	11th	1,500 XP
Invisibility	10th	1,000 XP
Magic mouth	10th	1,000 XP
Phase door	15th	3,500 XP
Prismatic sphere	17th	4,500 XP
Shrink item	11th	1,500 XP
Solid fog	12th	2,000 XP
Stinking cloud	11th	1,500 XP
Symbol	16th	4,000 XP
Teleportation circle	17th	4,500 XP
Wall of fire	12th	2,000 XP
Wall of force	13th	2,500 XP
Web	10th	1,000 XP

Spells cast on other creatures, objects, or locations (not on the character) are vulnerable to dispel magic as normal.

The DM may allow other selected spells to be made permanent. Researching this possible application of a spell costs as much time and money as independently researching the selected spell. If the DM has already determined that the application is not possible, the research automatically fails. Note that the character never learns what is possible except by the success or failure of the character's research.
