\subsection{Augury}\label{augury}

\emph{2nd---level divination (ritual)}

\begin{itemize}
\tightlist
\item
  \textbf{Casting Time:} 1 minute
\item
  \textbf{Range:} Self
\item
  \textbf{Components:} V, S, M (specially marked sticks, bones, or
  similar tokens worth at least 25 gp)
\item
  \textbf{Duration:} Instantaneous
\end{itemize}

By casting gem---inlaid sticks, rolling dragon bones, laying out ornate
cards, or employing some other divining tool, you receive an omen from
an otherworldly entity about the results of a specific course of action
that you plan to take within the next 30 minutes. The DM chooses from
the following possible omens:

\begin{itemize}
\tightlist
\item
  Weal, for good results
\item
  Woe, for bad results
\item
  Weal and woe, for both good and bad results
\item
  Nothing, for results that aren't especially good or bad
\end{itemize}

The spell doesn't take into account any possible circumstances that
might change the outcome, such as the casting of additional spells or
the loss or gain of a companion.

If you cast the spell two or more times before completing your next long
rest, there is a cumulative 25 percent chance for each casting after the
first that you get a random reading. The DM makes this roll in secret.
