1 standard action, 1 round/level, personal
You can see everything within your current normal range of vision as if viewing from directly above your current location. Outdoors, your viewpoint can be anywhere from 10 to 100 feet off the ground. Indoors, the point of reference is limited by the height of the ceiling, and you cannot see beyond the room you are currently in. You can see enemies hiding behind walls, crates, barrels, wagons, and the like, removing all combat penalties for enemies being behind cover, but you cannot see anyone or anything that is hidden underneath something or hidden by magic (such as Invisibility). The spell also grants you a +10 bonus to Perception checks when attempting to spot hiding creatures (the Perception DC is equal to the Stealth check of the creature trying to hide).
