Insect Sight (Reversible)

With this spell, the caster confers a fantastic range of vision on the creature touched. The recipient gains the ability to see above and behind him, with a field of vision of nearly 360 degrees. The creature will seldom be surprised, as it receives a +2 (or +20%) bonus to any roll that determines whether it has been surprised. In addition, back attacks against the creature are considered flank attacks, and flank attacks are considered frontal attacks. However, the spell gives a -2 penalty to any saving throw against a gaze attack. An unwilling creature receives a saving throw vs. spell to avoid receiving the insect sight spell.

The spell components are sun blossom oil and the dried remains often flies.

The reverse of this spell, tunnel vision, reduces the field of vision to a mere 10 degrees. The subject gains a +2 bonus to saving throws against gaze attacks, but suffers a -2 penalty to surprise checks. Flank attacks against the creature are considered rear attacks while the spell is in effect. The creature is allowed a saving throw vs. spell to avoid the effect. The material components are nightflower sap and an earthworm.

Notes: Very rare spell. Known to be in Prismal's Pocket Library, Vol. IV.
