(See also: Empathy)
Except for being 2nd level and for its component, this spell is identical to empathy. The material component is a prayer written on a strip of cloth tied about the caster's forehead. It is common in oriental settings.
Empathy
This spell allows the caster to sense the basic needs, drives, and/or emotions of any unshielded mind (hunger, thirst, fear, fatigue, pain, uncertainty, rage, hatred, curiosity, hostility, friendliness, love, and so on). The spell gives no result for creatures protected against detection, psionic creatures, or emotionless creatures (such as slimes, oozes, jellies, golems, skeletons, zombies, etc.).
The reverse of the spell, mask emotion, conceals the emotions of the protected creature for one turn.
The material component is the priest's holy symbol.
Notes: Very rare spell. (Updated from Polyhedron Newszine.)
