[QUOTE="Barcode, post: 1668258, member: 3165"] Yeah, kinda wish there was a Magic Aura/Undetectable Aura that affected spells (lower level than Nondetection, and as long lasting as the spell it is masking). Sounds like metamagic feat in the making... Here is a similar case. The Succubus. If you are not running a distinctly high magic campaign (i.e. where everyone has at least some low-level magic) - how is a succubus to operate? A surreptitious detect magic on the beautiful woman reveals the altered state. Bam, she is exposed, and her main weapon is useless - foiled by a single 1st level mage and his crappy 1st level spell. IMC, I had to give the Succubus Misdirection as a spell-like ability to give her even the chance of fooling someone. But out of the book, she is almost unplayable with a suspicious party. (Crass, but still suspicious). I have to guffaw when people downplay the usefulness of divination as a school of magic, like the fact that you can't take it as a restricted school when a wizard specializes. It is a royal pain when you are trying to build some mystery into the campaign. [/QUOTE]
