[QUOTE="Greys of Shade, post: 7238076, member: 6895698"] I fear that Elanor wouldn't have much luck divining on Isobel in an antimagic zone. I don't know where you want to limit Elanor's spell or spellcaster access, but I guess level 5 would be a good rule of thumb. Which means spells from a 9th or 10th level caster. Locate creature would simply fail, if not for the antimagic, then for the running water between Flint and Nalaam/Trekhom/Orithea. Divination might offer her cryptic advice on a possible plan to regain Isobel (or abduct your PC). Contact other plane works with the yes/no/maybe/irrelevant answers you already mentioned, and so does commune. Contact is pretty risky on the caster though (a good chance of taking Charisma damage) or it might produce false answers. Commune might be harder to get as it is a divine spell. What would definitely work is discern location, but this is an 8th level spell. Now, a commune/contact spell might lead to some really funny situations or conclusions depending on the questions Elanor would ask. It might even seem like Mr. Mapple is an RHC agent if all other evidence points at him or something similarly strange if the spell produces utterly wrong answers. Also, whether or not Elanor can link the abuction of Isobel to your party via divination might depend on the nature of their cover identity. Did they use their real names? Did they use magical disguises? Is the doctor a real doctor and is his identity linked to the other PCs? you get the idea. From a GM's perspective, I like the idea of changing Elanor's documents to match your Auryn. Your players seem to have put some effort into hiding Isobel and cracking the RHC wards might feel like cheating. It might be more engaging to let them face the consequences themselves. [/QUOTE]
