Detection Spells

Detection spells allow the caster to detect the specific target or targets within a particular range. The caster selects the force of the spell and uses that force as the difficulty against which they are casting. The detection range of the spell is typically the caster's Magic skill rating multiplied by the force of the spell. A single shift on a detection spell is sufficient to receive basic information, with more information provided for more detailed results.

Detection spells that directly detect or analyze living creatures only provide information about those targets whose Cool skill is less than the net shifts on the activating Sorcery check.

A detection spell may be sustained, allowing other action to be taken simultaneously, for 1 mental stress. Whatever consequence or stress box is filled by this mental stress cannot be recovered so long as the spell is sustained.
