I may have found something. Would the Cloak of Mystery (Su) ability of the Vecna-blooded template (MM5 p.66-67) pretty much stop the above-mentioned spells? The wording is a bit vague, more flavour-oriented and less mechanics-oriented. For instance, it says that you gain "immunity to all...

Not sure how that would work. If the cloak has the spell on it, then the cloak is what has a masked aura -- not helpful. If the cloak is supposed to cast / confer the spell on the wearer, I don't see how this could bypass its Target limitation (i.e. only objects) -- pretty sure it could only...

What are the various methods of detecting magic and/or locating that magic, either via magical auras or "magic potential"? (I don't care about determining strength, school, or other such properties; the detection and locating itself is undesirable). And what are the various methods of avoiding...
