You also learn the associated school of magic, if any. The spell’s effect is blocked by barriers of sufficient density:
-
1 decimeter of stone
-
1 centimeter of common metal

1 meter of wood or dirt
Stunts
Extended Detection
Spend 2 mana to extend the range of the spell to 50 meters.
Pulse of Revelation
You may extend the aura visibility to all allies within 10 meters for 1 round. Everyone can see magical sources around them.
Suppressive Glare
You may concentrate harder to temporarily suppress minor magical effects. Spend 1 additional mana to block a magical effect of Level 1 or lower within range for 1 round (GM discretion applies).
Resonant Sight
You may use Detect Magic to track lingering magical auras, allowing a Survival or Perception check to follow a magical trail for up to an hour.
Protective Ward
Spend 3 mana to create a ward that blocks all detected magic within a 10-meter radius of the caster, preventing spells from affecting anyone within the area.
