Conceals a magic item's aura

AD&D 2e[]

Normal Aura
Spell Level: 1 Rarity: Rare
Schools: Illusion/Phantasm
Components: V, S
Range: Touch Casting Time: 5
Duration: 1 day/lv Saving Throw: Negates
Target: 1 item of up to 1/2 lbs/level in weight

This spell masks the magical aura of an item. Spells less powerful than true seeing do not percieve the item as magical. However, handling the item allows a creature to make a save vs. spell to see that it is masked, and, once aware of it, the item can be detected as magical normally. An illusionist recieved a +1 bonus to this save. A spellcaster four or more levels higher than the caster of this spell sees the mask automatically, and is not affected by the spell. The spell negates Nystul's Magical Aura (and vice-versa).

The spell is known to be found in the Blue Book of Du'Morde, Vol. I.
