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.
