Breath Silt
(Alteration)(Elemental (Air), Paraelemental (Silt))

Range:  0
Components:  V, S
Duration:  1 hour per level
Casting Time:  7
Area of Effect:  Creatures touched
Saving Throw:  None

The recipient of a breath silt spell is able to breathe silt freely for the duration of the spell (this ability does not interfere with the ability to breathe normal air). The priest can divide the base duration between multiple characters. Thus, a 10th-level priest can confer this ability to 2 characters for 5 hours each, to 5 characters for 2 hours each, etc., to a minimum of half an hour per character.
As this spell allows the recipient to breathe silt and air, it will not only protect against choking in a silt storm but also against total submersion in the Sea of Silt. This spell will not protect against submersion in sand, water, or any other material; nor will it protect against noxious vapours, such as poisonous clouds or smoke.
