Unlock

Unlock was a personal cantrip that initiate wizards could learn. It could open simple locks of the type that used normal keys.

Effects
This cantrip conjured an invisible force in the shape of the key that would lock or unlock the targeted mechanism. It only worked on standard locks with typical keys and had no effect on combination locks or more complex designs using levers or tumblers. Magical wards, such as wizard lock, that did not affect the locking mechanism were unfazed by this cantrip, but complex wards that were designed to prevent the use of skeleton keys could be defeated by unlock.

Components
This cantrip required verbal and somatic components to cast. The caster made a motion with one hand, as if holding an invisible key and turning it in a lock. The somatic portion varied, but examples included "tick-tock-doublelock", "yah-el", or "yay-el".

History
This cantrip was recorded in the magical tome known as Sabirine's Specular along with five others including catfeet, clean, freshen, snatch, and spark.
