Discern Destiny

You choose a creature within range that you can see. An otherworldly entity grants you knowledge of the following: 

• The target creature's alignment. 
• The Outer Plane (or similar fate) to which the target creature's soul would be consigned if it were to die at the moment this spell was cast. 
• The identity of the entity providing the information. 

The answer may be as brief or as thorough as the responding entity prefers, but it must be a truthful reply. Divine beings aren't necessarily omniscient, and the spell needn't take into account any possible circumstances that might change the outcome, such as future holy burial rites, pleading prayers from a loved one, or interception by a fiend. 

Casting this spell on a creature that has no soul gives only the creature's alignment. Effects that hide a creature's alignment, such as a ring of mind shielding, or which hide a creature from divination spells, such as the nondetection spell or a rakshasa choosing to use its Limited Magic Immunity trait, cause this spell to fail and the action and spell slot to be wasted. Effects that deliver false information about alignment, such as the Nystul's magic aura spell, cause all information delivered by this casting of this spell to be in accordance with that false information.
