This Ceremony allows a necromancer to sense the presence of corpses and immediately identify their time and cause of death.
Ingredients: Embalming fluid
Process: The necromancer applies a drop of embalming fluid mixed with her own Blood to each of her eyes. The mixture is slowly absorbed into his retinas over the duration of the casting time. Unlike most Ceremonies, the small amount of Blood used does not require the necromancer to make a Rouse check.
System: For the remainder of the night the necromancer can sense the presence of any corpses within 100 yards and discover their locations with relative ease, even if hidden or buried. Further, she may target a true corpse within her line of sight and, with a simple action, instantly know the details of that creature’s death including all of the following:
- When did the target creature die?
- How did the target creature die?
- Has the corpse been altered since death?
- Did the death occur here, or was the body moved after death?
Duration: One night
