Description
​This power allows the user to scan for the presence of living, thinking creatures within a limited area. If he is scanning at short range, he can cover a large angle. At long range, the angle is significantly reduced. He can scan 180 degrees to a range of 40 yards, 90 degrees to 60 yards, or 30 degrees to 100 yards. One round of scanning detects humans, demihumans, humanoids, mammals, and monsters with 8 or more Hit Dice. A second round detects all creatures with less than 8 Hit Dice. In either case, the user receives an accurate count. The DM should make the MTHAC0 roll and keep it secret from the player. If the user doesn’t detect anything, he won’t know whether nothing’s there or the power failed. ​
