The character contacts a particular creature with whom the
character is familiar and send a short message of twenty-five
words or less to the subject. The subject recognizes the
character if it knows the character. It can answer in like manner
immediately. Creatures with Intelligence scores as low as 1 can
understand the sending, though the subjects ability to
react is limited normally by its Intelligence. Even if the
sending is received, the subject is not obligated to act upon it
in any manner.
If the creature in question is not on the same plane of
existence as the character is, there is a 5% chance that the
sending does not arrive. (Local conditions on other planes may
worsen this chance considerably, at the option of the DM.)
