You may make a mental connection with any divination sensor within range that you are aware of (generally as the result of a DC 20 intelligence check). When you establish this connection, you make an opposed caster level check against the sensor's creator. If you succeed, you may treat their scrying surface as if it were your own scrying sensor. Any capabilities that the sensor has, such as visual or audio transmission, you also gain through the scrying surface. As with other scrying abilities, any spell that targets you to improve your senses (as opposed to emanates from you) works normally through this connection.

If you fail the caster level check by less than 5 points you succeed in connecting with the scrying surface, but the sensor's creator is aware of the connection. They may break it immediately, granting you no information. They may also elect to continue the divination, and possible hold a conversation with you if audio would be passed.

If you fail the caster level check by more than 5 points you get no information at all. The sensor's creator is aware of the attempt, however, and may end the spell if they desire.


Material Component: A small piece of mirror and a miniature brass hearing trumpet.
