Each level takes one of the following forms, chosen by you when you cast the spell:

- An unfurnished, empty room
The interior of the tower is warm and dry, regardless of conditions outside. Any equipment or furnishings conjured with the tower dissipate into smoke if removed from it. At the end of the spell’s duration, all creatures and objects within the tower that were not created by the spell appear safely outside on the ground, and all traces of the tower and its furnishings disappear.
The tower and any of the many rooms its contains can be locked down placing the room, floor or tower entire under a ‘Forbiddance’ preventing all forms of intrusion below the towers own spell slot level. The caster and anyone they appoint retains the ability to lock and unlock the tower, alternatively a key device can be created to serve this function.
If cast using the ‘Ritual Circle’ spell then the total area of each floor will increase to that of the ritual circle, the height of each floor will remain at 10 ft however. Should the expanded floor space allow for multiple rooms to be placed on each floor they will be arranged around a central spiral staircase, the centre of the spiral staircase will contains a magical elevator that conveys people and objects to the desired floor safely. Each floor can have 1 room per 30 ft radius of the ‘Ritual Circle’, additionally multiple rooms can be combined into a single larger room of the chosen type.
The ‘Ritual Circle’ component material will also become a proxy for this ‘Galder’s Tower’, subsequent casts can be targeted towards any diamond of the ‘Ritual Circle’ regardless of its distance from the actual location with full effects. You can cast this spell again while it is active to maintain the tower’s existence for another 24 hours. You can create a permanent tower by casting this spell in the same location and with the same configuration every day for one year. The Permanency spell can not be used with this spell as the towers functions are active and can’t be placed into the magical stasis that Permanency imposes.
