[QUOTE="krazykid, post: 1610904, member: 14960"] Does a rogue find a alarm spell as a magical trap? I would have thought so but then this raises a new issue - Alarm has a 20' radius trigger - At what point does the rogue detect the spell, at the point of origin of the spell (meaning he has triggered the alarm before finding it) or before entering the spell radius? If it is before the spell radius can the rogue disable the alarm spell considering its point of origin is 20' away?
