Description:

This spell enables the caster to detect secret doors, compartments, caches, and similar devices. Only passages, doors, or openings that have been deliberately constructed as hidden are detected by this spell- a trap door buried beneath crates in a cellar, an illusionary wall, or an amulet left in a cluttered room would not be detected. The caster affects an area of 10 feet square per infused Weave. The area being searched being searched must be contiguous but does not need to be flat; the spell will bend to cover floors, nooks, etc., so long as they are within the spell's effect. The effect itself is not mobile, so the occultist cannot cast the spell and casually walk down a dungeon corridor, they would have to recast the spell, with the associated Magic Point costs, to search another area. Any doorways or openings detected by this spell glow softly for one full minute. It's possible the caster might not find a secret compartment in the area of effect if the compartment is behind or under another object which covers it completely. This spell only detects the doorway or opening; the caster may have to search for a mechanism or catch which opens the door.
