Actually, I always kinda figured they would simply deactivate and reactivate them at opening and closing.

I would then require a that temporal wizard spell attune object to allow it.

I would allow an alchemist to do it.

I'm not sure why anybody's making a deal about this.

Trigger by Condition + Moon + Inflict + Whatever.

Not really unorthodox, not really unbalancing....
What's with the cries for a temporal mage or alchemist?

I think what I'll do for "when no employee is around" is have something like:

Trigger by Condition + Moon + Inflict + Not Authorized = crispy critters

Not Authorized might be a separate glyph that the Diabolist lists with True Names and if those aren't present then it Inflicts.

It's not a big damage/power thing either, It's either a sleep or confusion + alarm and the owners can take over from there.

Either that or I'll use a tech device.


A thought just occurred to me...

Possible downside is that sometimes the moon is out during the daytime. :)

It's actually for Center/Phase World which is 24x7 indoors; although I run "simulated" night/darkness for the inhabitants. It's not quite the same, but I think the Darkness/Light runes will do the trick. The Diabolist is a supernatural/godling and 9th level Diabolist, so I think they can cover what I have in mind.

If not, I'll go with the tech device and que it off their DNA from a xeno-scanner.


Nah, I think that there's enough leeway with intent that it should do what you want.
