The mage can transmute a precious
or rare substance, such as gold or diamond,
into a common substance, such
as wood or mud.
This spell is like Transmute Earth p. 200, except that it can be cast on precious substances or materials that are rare or valuable (bearing metaphysical weight based on the importance the mage’s culture assigns to them). The caster cannot alter the substance’s state (liquid or solid) unless he combines the casting with Lesser Transmogrification p. 201.
Guardians of the Veil Rote: Fool's Gold
Guardian mages use this rote to punish
those who think they can buy their
way out of everything, rendering riches
into dead leaves or clay.
