You cast this spell and observe another creature perform some physical action such as picking a lock, swinging a sword, swimming, or performing ventriloquism. You may then reproduce that action yourself at any one time before this spells duration ends. The skill imitated must be possible through mundane means and you must possess appendages adequate to perform the task, thus you cannot fly unless you have wings. Actions that take longer than one minute to complete cannot be imitated, thus you cannot imitate the playing of a five minute long song. The range of motion which you imitate must be exactly the same as that which you observed, or very close, thus you can imitate the swinging of a long sword by swinging a short sword in the same manner, but you cannot imitate swinging a long sword by swinging a tavern table. You perform the action as if you possessed the same physical ability scores (Strength, Dexterity, and Constitution) as the subject whom you are imitating. The spell ends when you finish imitating the action or when its duration is completed.
