Healer Vision

" Arterial wound- you're bleeding out at 2 pints a minute. Oh, you're kidding... did I do that?"

— a caster using Healer Vision

A Healer Vision spell is used to discern the condition of a single Subject, as it relates to their physical condition. Appearing as orbs and auras of chakric energy that coalesce around concerning points, these globes help to determine any underlying cause or condition.

Effect

Healer Vision takes 1 Action to cast and activates instantaneously. This spell only lasts for 1 round, at which point, it must be cast again.

This spell allows a Caster to review the condition of a Subject. This doesn't indicate any kind of magical or supernatural malady; instead, it reads the total physical condition of the Subject.

Any kind of physical condition, such as poison, bleeding, or disease, become known to the Caster. This doesn't indicate the sources of the aforementioned; only that they exist within the Subject. For example, if a Subject was coated in a poison, the Caster wouldn't know it through application of the Healer's Vision.

This spell reveals the Physical Conditions stack to the Caster. Players are able to share their positive conditions with each other through the use of this spell. A Subject can attempt to hide their status through Grace or SUBTERFUGE, success indicating to the Caster that nothing is wrong (vs opposed Caster Proficiency checks).

Side/Secondary Effects

On any turn that Healer Vision was cast prior, the action required to activate it is 1 Free Action. The Caster can choose a new Subject for the spell at this point. If in the prior turn, the chosen Action used to cast Healer Vision was 1 Free Action, then the Caster must use 1 Action to re-cast this spell again.

Healer Vision is also capable of revealing the Health Points (HP) of an individual. Between the Caster and Subject, the Physical Conditions Stack and the total Health and Sanity score are revealed to the Caster.

Manifestation

" The Caster's eyes emit a chakra of colorful, illuminating light, creating 2 circles which spread like flat waves between the Subject. On a broken femur, the colorful pulses react with aura resonance. The Caster treats the wound."

Applied Restriction

"Killer Vision" is the name given to this spell used by lethal assasins to track their targets and monitor their conditions. It is incredibly effective for Hunters as well. "Healer Vision" should typically be addressed as its announced, as it's seen as invasive and violates people's privacy, which can result in claims of harassment or suspicious spell-casting behaviors.
