Augury

Casting grants portents of the future—if the caster is enlightened enough to understand them. The tools for scrying vary and could be anything from using a scrying mirror to tarot cards, animal entrails to tealeaves, the casting of runes or watching the flight patterns of birds. Timing can vary due to the tools and nature of the scrying.

The chance of understanding an augury is a roll equal to or less than the augur’s POW. A portent may be vague, subtle, dreamlike, or in a cryptic verse—the future is not a book to be read, but rather a message or impression upon the caster’s mind. Successful use of the spell should provide at least one useful piece of information.
