Need to make a high Knowledge(Religion) DC

[Taverick]

So some things happened, kinda screwed up royally on a UMD check and now I'm slowly turning into some big and heinous outsider that I can't identify just yet. Well if my type changes I lose a special template I took and doing that would probably sick a pit fiend (or agents of) after me to reclaim his property. So, with a int mod of 6, and maybe only one rank in the skill cause I doubt it will be a class skill, how do I make a DC 50 knowledge(religion) check? It's the fastest and easier way for me to fix this seeing as I'm only level 2. I am a 1st lvl artificer so I can make up to 2nd lvl scrolls. Any spells that you can suggest would be nice as long as they add to a knowledge skill or not the next skill used.
Lets not have the pit fiend subject me to ANOTHER bout of painful essence infusion shall we?

Guidance of the Avatar (https://www.wizards.com/dnd/article.asp?x=dnd/sb/sb20010504a) will get +20 of it done.

Awesome! Now I just need at least another +15. Might help if I lay out what I've got so far;

Int mod: 6
Ranks: 1
MW tools: 2
skill enhancement infusion: 2
Divine insight: 6
Guidance of the avatar: 20
Total: 37
If I play my cards right I can get a additional +5 out of the base sacrifice bonuses, so that brings me up to 40. Can any one fill in that last +8?

Improvisation with a sufficiently high CL. Wieldskill gets you another +5. Several of those might be Competence bonuses, watch for stacking rules.

You can get a +2 out of Fox's Cunning (which you can make as a level 1 scroll, IIRC from the Sandshaper list).

Ancient Knowledge (Magic of Eberron) gives +5 insight.

[GilesTheCleric]

Lore of the Gods gives a +5 insight bonus, and will also let you re-roll your check if you fail. Insight of Good Fortune and Alter Fortune also give you rerolls. Share Talents will give a +2 untyped bonus, and gives you proficiency in the skill.

If your knowledge check doesn't completely work, Commune might do the trick.

Edit: Found a solution. Substitute Domain or domain draught into the Demonic domain (BoVD), then use Demoncall for a +10 profane bonus.

Also, if you can find a library, they can give up to a +6 circumstance bonus (SBG).

Edit 2: Sub domain/draught into the Nature domain (OA), then use Commune with Lesser Spirit. Nobility domain gives a +2 morale bonus. Mechanus domain's (PlH) Mechanus Mind gives an +2 untyped bonus.

Guidance of the Avatar - +20
Divine insight - +5 to +15 insight bonus

That puts you at +35. Get foxes cunning for another +2, for +37.

Call to mind can allow you to roll again at +4. That should give you +41

Get 1 rank, then get a masterwork book for a +2, for +44.

What books are these spells in and commune won't work, as I can't make a scroll of that lvl yet and the knowledge check is to make a sacrifice to fix myself.

OH, I forgot one. Not a bonus, but surge of fortune will allow you to treat your check as a natural 20. That is equivalent to a untyped +10.
