Shard Sense

Created by XanaSnacks

**School:** Divination | **Level:** 1 | **Casting Time:** 1 Action | **Range:** Self | **Duration:** Concentration, up to 10 minutes By casting this spell, you open your mind to the resonant frequencies of the Shattered Star, allowing you to perceive its lingering influence across the surrounding area. For the spell's duration, you become aware of any active Star Shards, creatures warped by Shard corruption, and significant artifacts infused with Shard power that exist within 60 feet of you. Your newfound awareness grants you a sense of the general direction from which this energy emanates, though the specifics of each source—its exact location, true nature, or the extent of its power—remain obscured. This heightened perception can pierce through mundane obstacles and darkness with ease, but powerful magical wards and protective enchantments may shield sources from your detection. The spell requires you to maintain concentration on this sensory attunement, and breaking your focus ends the effect prematurely. This spell proves invaluable for tracking corrupted threats and locating artifacts of importance
