For the duration, you can see the souls of others within a 30-foot radius, granted that they are not obscured by 2 feet of rock, 2 inches of any metal other than lead, or a thin sheet of lead. By focusing on another's soul, you gain advantage on Wisdom (Insight and Perception) checks made against them, and all Charisma checks are made with advantage, as you are aware of their innermost functioning. In addition, you learn three pieces of knowledge about the creature, and are privy to their current emotional state. The target is oblivious to their soul being observed.
This spell is ineffective against those who know how to protect their souls from view. This can include deities, knowledgeable spellcasters, higher fey, etc. Regardless, they will still remain oblivious to the attempt.
