Steinhardt's Guide to the Eldritch Hunt

Ancestral Bond

5-level Divination

Casting Time: 1 minute

Range/Area: Self

Components: V, S, M (the bone of a humanoid, which the spell may consume)

Duration: Instantaneous

You touch the corpse of a humanoid, and visions of its descendants come to you, as ephemeral spirits scour the world. You learn how many living relatives the humanoid left behind and if they have any living descendants.
In addition, you can select one of the descendants whose existence you can feel through the spell. By destroying the corpse to amplify the power of the magic, you can attempt to determine their location. The target must make a Wisdom saving throw. On a failed save, you learn their exact location, no matter where they are.
