This spell makes your eyes glow blue and allows you to see magical auras within 120 feet of you. The effect is similar to that of a ''[[SRD:Detect Magic|detect magic]] ''spell, but ''arcane sight ''does not require concentration and discerns aura location and power more quickly.

You know the location and power of all magical auras within your sight. An aura’s power depends on a spell’s functioning level or an item’s [[SRD:Caster Level|caster level]], as noted in the description of the ''detect magic ''spell. If the items or creatures bearing the auras are in line of sight, you can make [[SRD:Spellcraft Skill|Spellcraft skill]] checks to determine the school of magic involved in each. (Make one check per aura; [[SRD:DC|DC]] 15 + [[SRD:Spell Level|spell level]], or 15 + one-half [[SRD:Caster Level|caster level]] for a nonspell effect.)

If you concentrate on a specific creature within 120 feet of you as a [[SRD:Standard Actions|standard action]], you can determine whether it has any spellcasting or [[SRD:Spell-Like Ability|spell-like abilities]], whether these are arcane or divine ([[SRD:Spell-Like Ability|spell-like abilities]] register as arcane), and the strength of the most powerful spell or [[SRD:Spell-Like Ability|spell-like ability]] the creature currently has available for use.

''Arcane sight ''can be made permanent with a ''[[SRD:Permanency|permanency]] ''spell.
