D&D 5E (2014) See Invisibility: awareness of Invisibility

[Plaguescarred]

Count me in the "shimmering aura" camp, i always ruled that you're aware the creature you see has the Invisible condition.

I don’t like giving it the equivalent of Detect Magic on top of See Invisibility.

If see invisible is only making it evident which creatures are under the effects of some kind of invisibility magic, it's hardly giving out the equivalent of detect magic.

You know if they’re under the effects of a spell. That’s extra knowledge See invisibility doesn’t specifically provide and it’s not the kind of info I’d give out. I’d prefer the person with the see invisibility have to figure it out themselves. I think it makes for more interesting situations if they don’t specifically know.
