[QUOTE="bloodtide, post: 8752020, member: 6684958"] The spell flat out says that it "doesn't function where nature has been replaced by construction, such as in dungeons and towns." A halfling village would be a place where "nature has been replaced by construction", so no information. Commune with Nature, as written, won't help find a specific target. Though this is a PERFECT example of the writers giving too much "help" as to what the spell does. Try the 1E version: This spell enables the druid to become one with nature in the area, thus being empowered with knowledge of the surrounding territory. For each level of experience of the druid, he or she may "know" one fact, i.e. the ground ahead, left or right, the plants ahead, left or right, the minerals ahead, left or right, the water courses/bodies of water ahead, left or right, the people dwelling ahead, left or right, etc. The spell is effective only in outdoors settings, and operates in a radius of one half mile for each level of experience of the druid casting the Commune With Nature spell. Of course 1E gives more "knows". But it's also vague. The 1E spell can pin point a person, object, thing. The spell is high enough level that it should be useful. [/QUOTE]
