Level: 2 ; Manna Cost: 4 ; Components: V, S
School: Abjuration

Range: Touch ; Target: One door, cabinet, chest, or portal touched, up to 30 sq. ft./level in size
Saving Throw: None ; Spell Resistance: No

An arcane lock spell cast upon a door, cabinet, chest, or portal magically locks it. The caster can freely pass his or her own lock without affecting it; otherwise, a door or object secured with arcane lock can be opened only by breaking in or by a successful dispel magic or knock spell. Add +10 to the normal DC to break open a door or portal affected by this spell. Note that a knock spell does not remove an arcane lock. It only suppresses it for 10 minutes.

Requires a spoken incantation and a touch of the hand to cast the spell.
