=== Etheliometer ===
<onlyinclude>An etheliometer is a rather crazy collection of knobs, levers, gears, and dials that requires two hands to operate. Those who understand a bit about how magic works can use the various fiddly bits on it to detect the presence of magic and to learn information about it. As a result, only characters with ranks in [[Tome of Prowess (3.5e Sourcebook)/Arcana|Arcana]], [[Tome of Prowess (3.5e Sourcebook)/Geomancy|Geomancy]], or [[Tome of Prowess (3.5e Sourcebook)/Thaumaturgy|Thaumaturgy]] can use it effectively.

When used, however, an individual with ranks in one or more of the above skills can determine the presence of magic in a 60' cone (radiating outward from the etheliometer) as a 1-round action. With an additional 1-round action, the wielder can determine the direction and distance to each magical effect within the cone. Once located, they may spend a 1-minute action the wielder can determine additional information about a magical effect or item so long as they are within 5' of it. This last function is treated as a use of the Identify Magic ability in the [[Tome of Prowess (3.5e Sourcebook)/Arcana|Arcana]], [[Tome of Prowess (3.5e Sourcebook)/Geomancy|Geomancy]], or [[Tome of Prowess (3.5e Sourcebook)/Thaumaturgy|Thaumaturgy]] skills. The wielder gains additional information about the effect based on the result of their check.
