Identify Materials

Vocals Let the Elements of Earth, Air, Fire and Water open my senses to identify this item’s properties – Identify Materials
Call Identify Materials
Range Touch
Duration Instantaneous
Cost 1 magic point
Key Words LESSER ELEMENTAL INFORMATION
Description The caster learns what materials the target object is composed of (e.g. to identify a sword as iron or silver), the quality of the object’s materials or crafting (e.g. ordinary or high, standard or mastercrafted), and any special properties the object has (e.g. a blade that’s sharpened to call Through).

If the caster has the skill Alchemist, they can use this spell to immediately identify a potion or poison (without the need for the usual 30 seconds’ examination). It will not identify a potion’s ingredients, as the brewing process has transformed them into a new state. At the attending referee’s discretion, this spell may reveal more information, including an object’s extraplanar origins, the effects of strong magic, the balance of the four elements within or other properties.
