This simple spell grants the recipient the ability to effortlessly speak in a loud clear voice for the duration. Persons as far away as 200 feet can hear the recipient of crier's boon over a normal crowd as if they were standing next to him. Exceptionally noisy areas can reduce the distance the recipient's voice will travel, as determined by the DM.
Crier's boon has been used for countless years by town criers and nobility alike to address large numbers of persons. Many times, this spell is used in conjunction with power word, attention (q.v.) to great effect. To cast this spell, the wizard is required to take a piece of fine vellum and roll it into a cone-like shape during the casting of the spell.
