And it's okay to make an entirely new post for new questions instead of casting "raise dead" on a week-old post. [img]smile.gif[/img]

1.Improved Aclarity: What is it? What does it do? I have heard a lot of people talking about it, and it's NOT listed as a spell in the manual. Is it some sort of special ability or what? And what does it do? From what I've heard about it it SOUNDS like it decreases casting time, but that's just a guess.

Improved Alacrity is a level 9 spell that speeds up casting time by 4 rounds. (Confirmation?) Like Dimension Door, Imp Alac appears in the game but can't be cast by a mage/sorcerer by normal means. A limited wish (level 7 spell) can grant you time stop + improved alacrity if your wisdom is high enough (and you pick the right wish, that is).

2.Sanctuary: Is there any way to dispel it? It seems like a really good level one spell if there isn't. You can cast that as soon as you see an enemy and just buff yourself up like heck. Especially for a solo character.

I think Sanctuary can be brought down by dispel magic. (Confirmation?) And it's not that much of a spell. You can only cast minor defensive spells and healing spells on yourself. I know invisibility brings it down, but I'm not sure if PfNW or PfMW will cause the Sanctuary to cease (for all you cleric/mages out there).

SPOILERS INVOLVING THE DAYSTAR

3.Daystar:Why would a lich be guarding it? It's a weapon that has incredible power against undead creatures...Just wondering if anyone had a good reason for this, or is it something that probably should have been changed?

I hypothesized in another post the reasons why Bob would be guarding Daystar. I figured that a really powerful undead critter would be hiding a really powerful anti-undead weapon to make sure that its power didn't fall into wayfaring adventurers' scabbards. I think the better question is why Bob of all liches is guarding it! Compared to the other liches, Bob's nickname is Speedbump.
