Type: Concentration, Divination, Sensory, Scrying 6th
Cast: full (3 actions)
Range: melee; Long
Target: 1 magical sensor created and controlled by you
Duration: 10 minutes (sustained)
Resistance: Will negates (harmless)
Selection: Select one sense upon acquiring this ability: auditory, olfactory/taste, tactile, or visual.



You create an invisible and incorporeal sensor at a location within range (even if it's outside your line of sight or line of effect). You can perceive through the sensor as if you were standing in its place using your selected sense (auditory, olfactory/taste, tactile, or visual). You can move the sensor up to 2 spaces/tier as a swift action (1 action). If your sensor leaves the plane you're on or the range limit, it winks out of existence, ending this effect for that sensor. While perceiving through the sensor, you're unable to perceive through your own body, though you can switch back and forth as an action.



Additional Senses (+1): Choose one additional sense each time this upgrade is applied: auditory, olfactory/taste, tactile, visual. Your sensors also allow you to perceive through them using this sense.

Astral Projection (+1): You can cast spells on your sensors as if they were familiars and you were utilizing the Share Spells feature. The second time you apply this, you can cast spells through your sensors as if you were standing in the sensor's location. However, each time you cast a spell on your sensor or through your sensor, you become vulnerable to spells and similar forms of magical attacks through the sensor as if you were standing in its place for 1d4+1 rounds. For example, if you casted iron skin on your sensor, a foe within reach of your sensor could cast death touch on you by touching your sensor, even though it's incorporeal.

Enlarged Senses (+1): Your initial range increases to Long and your secondary range increases to 1 mile. Each time this upgrade is applied beyond the first time, it increases the number by a factor of 3 rounded up to the nearest multiple of 10: 3 miles, 10 miles, 30 miles, 100 miles, 300 miles, etc.

Polycognizance (+1): You can perceive through your own body and your sensor simultaneously. The second time you apply this upgrade, you create 3 sensors instead of 1, all of which can be controlled simultaneously. Each time this upgrade is applied beyond the first time, it increases the number by a factor of 3 rounded up to the nearest multiple of 10: 3, 10, 30, 100, 300, etc.

Special Senses (+1): You can apply any special senses you innately have to your sensor. If you apply this a second time, you can apply all special senses you have, even if they are temporary or cast after the sensory is created.

Stable Sensor (+1): Your sensor gains 2 additional hardness and 2 additional hit points per tier each time this upgrade is applied. It also gains a +1 bonus to saves and DCs against being dispelled per time this is applied.
