I have an enemy who has disappeared with a valuable weapon. I need to find out any & all spells that an 8th level cleric could cast, which will discover where the enemy is, or at least where the item is. The enemy could be in the same town I'm in, or could be anywhere else on the continent. However, the enemy would not be on another plane.
Any ideas? So far I have Circle Dance & Locate Object. Neither is good enough.
If you have the Knowledge Domain, there is Clairaudience/Clairvoyance. If there are dead bodies around that used to work with him, there is Speak with Dead. That's all I can think of in the Core Rules without bringing in some of my campaign's spells (fire-speak, the walls have ears, etc.)
Ciao,
Dave

Commune will help you narrow the research if you ask the good questions.
You can also use Divination to get some ideas before casting Commune

Thanks to Gary Gygax for all those years of gaming and joy, past, present and future, see you someday on an outer plane.
He could cast divination. You're right about commune, though.

Reason: Damned netbook micro-keyboard.
I actually gave Divination a shot at the game I just played. It worked kinda OK -- we got a name. It's just... the name is completely foreign and doesn't seem to help us at all yet. That seems to be perfectly in line with how the spell works, so I should have expected as much.
If we open this up to low-level sorcerer scrolls, what do we get then? We have a sorcerer on the team, but can only do 4th level and below.

That could work - for a Sorcerer, Scrying is a 4th level spell, not 5th. It's a little much to ask him to take it as a spell known, though, as it doesn't normally see all that much use... and you'll have it next level, for less.

You can also buy scrolls of higher level spells, if you are able to. Casting them just requires a caster level check. A bit of a gamble, but what else is the d20 used for =v).

Catch:
Scroll save DC's are generally minimal (literally).
