Wanted:
detect light and detect darkness spells. They'd tell
the caster how light or how dark it is in the room!
Currently its pretty much "you see" and "you dont see"
Think of RL luxes or so, at some point our senses can't HANDLE the
light/darkness. Especially when there is MAGICKS involved.
Example: (in imaginary units of darkness, called Nosus)
100 Nosus: a cloudy day
200 Nosus: night with some starlight
300 Nosus: a dwarf's butthole (pretty damn dark already).
400 Nosus: A dark(tm) cave with some nullium on the floor.
10000 Nosus: So dark you can't see your own thoughts... + 1k nulliums
So, a human can see up to 300 Nosus... providing they want to peer
into someone's butt. With the new detect darkness spell, one could
instantly tell if the darkness is beyond their sensory capabilities.
And use that info for sirius minmaxing and nerdy research.
Useful and fun! Have a happy new year!
