See invisibility, or detect invisibility,[17] was a divination spell that allowed the caster to see invisible or ethereal creatures and objects.[5]
Effects[]
When cast, the spellcaster's eyes could see invisible and ethereal things as translucent shapes for a distance as far as he or she could normally see. It was easy to determine which things were visible as opposed to invisible while under the effects of the spell.[5]
The spell did not provide any information about whether the invisibility was the result of a spell or of some supernatural quality. It did not permit the caster to see through other opaque objects. Someone or something hidden in a natural manner was not revealed by this spell.[5]
The ability provided lasted at least a half hour and longer if cast by a more powerful spellcaster. The effect could also be made permanent.[5]
Components[]
The spell required verbal and somatic components, a pinch of talc, and a tiny sprinkling of powdered silver.[5]
History[]
This spell was originally developed by Netherese arcanist Trebbe in −2241 DR under the name Trebbe's scry invisibility.[1][18]
Notable Users[]
Some creatures had an innate ability similar to see invisibility, such as helmed horrors,[19] jade spiders,[20] and marids.[21]
