An amulet of proof against detection and location was a magical amulet that protected its wearer against divination magic such as scrying.[1][5]
Powers[]
The amulet protected its wearer in a way similar to the nondetection spell.[5] An attuned wearer was immune from being targeted by divination spells,[1] although sufficiently powerful diviners could attempt to overcome its protection.[5] Moreover, the wearer could not be perceived by sensors such as the ones created by the scrying spell.[1]
