Fairy waltz

[Anastasia]

You feel a sudden moment of disorientation, but it passes.

The Adversary produces a large, gray box from within his robes, a few feet wide and a foot tall. He places it down onto the air, where it floats. "It is within there."

[Nephrite]

"I'm sure you won't take offense." Moore says as he studies the box for anything averse.

Arcane Sight, CL 38

[22:21] <Nephrite> roll 1d20+38 CL check if needed
[22:21] <Penuche> Nephrite invokes Penuche's magic: < 46 > [d20=8]

Spellcraft for 115, K:A for 120 if needed.

If it isn't horribly trapped and evil he will open it.

[Anastasia]

Are you casting Arcane Sight as a spell, an SLA or something else real quick?

[Nephrite]

I have it up all the time since I can SLA it with divine power, I'm just using it right now. So I suppose it's the latter, but it was already on him if it matters.

[Anastasia]

Nothing - you can tell the box is intensely warded, as well as made of lead. That'll stop most anything. You might be able to get past it if you seriously apply divine power, but arcane sight just isn't enough here.

Opening the box might help.

[Nephrite]

Well, if it is trapped and he does it so blatantly in front of both Antenora and Sylvie then that's certainly something.

He will open the box!

[Anastasia]

The box is opened. Within lies an old harp. It's made of iron and with worn strings intact, hints of rust about it.

[Nephrite]

Moore will take a look at the harp!

Same checks as before.

[Anastasia]

The harp is minorly enchanted. It will produce better quality music when played, but nothing else.

Yet to your divine gaze, you can see deeper magic within it. The magic of an artifact, something charged with a far deeper purpose.

[Nephrite]

Can I figure out what specifically will tell me what it will do? Maybe something I can magic up with Wish to identify an artifact's properties?

[Anastasia]

It's resisting. Epic magic in a deity's hands possibly could if turned to this, a proper divination. Alternately, a magic god's ability to see magic (the SDA of the same name) would certainly reveal it.

[Nephrite]

Well we don't have the latter available, so perhaps the former?

Not sure I can just come up with a spell on the spot for this like that.

Hmm, if I allowed Oghma to see it (like, allowing him to use his divine sense for an area or something, assuming that isn't blocked here) would that work? Just trying to suss out what my options are. I guess if that doesn't work I can try my Commune with Knowledge spell focused entirely on this?

[Anastasia]

You don't know, simply because you don't know Oghma's stats and abilities, so I couldn't possibly comment. He is a deity of knowledge for what that's worth.

You could try your spell or something else as you please.

[Nephrite]

If I go the Oghma route do I think The Adversary would know?

Or, to more articulate the question: If a Deity uses their sensory ability through a willing target (I am assuming I can let him anyway) do other deities know that happened, if I happen to... know that?

[Anastasia]

You doubt you could hide it as the Adversary is looking right at you.
