By means of this spell, the caster creates a number of insubstantial "hands" that he can use to assist him in various processes. The number of hands equals one per three levels (or fraction) of experience of the caster.
The hands cannot be used to attack or defend but can otherwise be used for any normal purpose, as if they were physical appendages of the caster. They possess a Strength equal to the caster's. Examples of use include housekeeping jobs, climbing (bonus +10% per hand), holding other characters or items, etc.
Whatever weight the hands carry, it is in addition to any allowed for the caster. In any case, the DM must judge whether the attempted actions are within reason (each hand can only do things a normal hand can).
This spell was designed for the Dark Sun campaign world. The spell was created by the thri-kreen earth druid Kll'Rkh.
