Scrying (aka "praxis metaskopia") is the method used to divine a being's location in the world, whether it is an NPC or another incarnos.

  1. You need `stare' at an object to focus your scrying. Common objects include crystal spheres, mirrors and flames.
  2. After you have focused your attention, you need concentration to fall into a trance. The higher your skill, the better your ability to enter very deep trances.
  3. Once you have fallen into a trance, you need imagination to `imagine' the being you are trying to scry.

TODO:

  • Document how different objects affect scrying.
  • Document how trance level (light, moderate, deep, etc.) affects scrying.
  • Document what determines distance and/or accuracy of the scry.


Insomniac's Note
As a Sparrow bonded Coven I've eventually gotten to scry with coordinates. It took 3 specs in Orienteering 
(Roughly around 130 orienteering) to get general coordinates. Around 150 I got more accurate. Granted Sparrow
bonds are easy at raising the Divination skill and get a few bonus points into it. Although with less orienteering
a seer seemed to be more accurate.
