[QUOTE="Meeki, post: 3591611, member: 17257"] Sounds like an interesting feat however illusions do not need to have detect magic cast upon them to realize they aren't real. Many illusions require simple interaction with them, even permanent image, which functions like silent image allowing a will save when interacted with, allows a save. So a mage interacts with the illusion, thinks its magical so he casts detect magic but does not register as magic. Then he interacts with it, allowing a will save, and makes his save, so he notices its fake. What good does this feat do? Also, Magic Aura makes items register as non-magic already (or a magic item of a kind you specify, or the subject of a spell you specify). Only difference between what you want to do is that Magic Aura only effects items. I would say just writing a spell with a magic aura attached to it would be the preferred method or something of the like. Maybe you can make a feat that changes illusion spells to require a second will save, if they pass the original, in order to disbelieve. Perhaps make this one a 2 level increase in illusion spells.
