[QUOTE="Scotley, post: 1968818, member: 11520"] Some of the domains in the Complete Divine such as Inquistor, Mind, Dream and Oracle concentrate on spells already addressed in this thread plus a couple of new ones that might need attention. Brain Spider allows access to the thoughts of up to 8 creatures at a time. Look this one over carefully. This one could allow for the searching of thoughts and memories of lots of possible suspects one at a time or glean the information about a particular subject from all eight minds at once. This spell looks like a real problem. The only real defenses are a high will save and keeping the people who know something out of long range--at least a thousand feet. At least its an 8th level spell--7th for Mind domain. Deific Vengence--This one might be fun to have around once the killer is discovered. Dream sight is a long range clairvoyance spell. Not specifically dangerous, but something to think about. Scent could make it easier for the party to track a known bad guy. One other spell here you might want to look at is True dominiation. By using this spell to force someone normally loyal and trusted to commit the murder you can let divinations reaveal the murder from the beginning and instead the mystery is who cast the spell. This will eliminate a lot of the possible use of divination spells. Not all, but most spells will be limited by the fact that the true cause of the high priest's death was far away and never actually at the temple or seen by anyone. He needs no willing allys that could reaval something under truth or mind reading spells. Anyway, its something to think about. I haven't been over all the prestige classes, so some of them may have a divination power as well, but those above seem to be the only spells of concern. [/QUOTE]
