Effect: Similar to an augury spell,
a divination spell is used to determine information regarding an AREA.

The area can be a small woods,
large building,
or section of a dungeon level.
In any case,
its location must be known.
The spell gives information regarding the relative strength of creatures in the area;
whether a rich, moderate or poor treasure is there;
and the relative chances for incurring the wrath of evil or good supernatural,
super powerful beings if the area is invaded and attacked.
The base chance for correct divination is 60%,
plus 1% for each level of experience of the cleric casting the spell,
i.e. 65% at 5th level, 66% at 6th, etc.
The DM will make adjustments to this base chance considering the facts regarding actual area being divined.
If the result is not correct, inaccurate information will be obtained.

MC: A sacrificial creature,
incense,
and the holy symbol of the cleric.
If an unusually potent divination is attempted,
sacrifice of particularly valuable gems || jewelry and/or magic items may be required.
 

Shukenja: The divination spell is used to gather information regarding an area whose location is known.
Information gathered includes relative strength of creatures, amount and value of treasure, and whether the area
is under the eye of supernatural beings. The chance of successful divination is 60% plus 1% per level of the
caster, modified further by the DM as needed. If the divination is not correct, inaccurate information is
provided.

Shukenja.MC: A handful of coins, incense, and the shukenja's holy symbol.
For powerful divinations, jewelry or magic items may be required.
 

SA: Commune, Divination, Spiritual Hammer — The Astral Plane
is not considered “neutral territory” to the gods, as the PMP is.
Spells like commune, divination, and spiritual hammer will not function astrally
— unless the cleric’s deity lives on the Astral Plane —
because to succeed, they require direct intervention by the deity or a minion of the deity.
The gods who inhabit the Astral Plane would take offense if such a thing were allowed to happen — so it does not happen.
