Detection
For the duration, you know if there is a living creature within 30 feet of you, as well as where the creature is located. Similarly, this spell won't detect any creature that isn't considered alive in the conventional sense, such as undead or constructs.
The spell can penetrate most barriers, but it is blocked by 1 foot of stone, 1 inch of common metal, a thin sheet of lead, or 3 feet of wood or dirt.

Posted Mar 1, 2021For a second I thought this spell already existed as I was reading, then realized all other spells are "detect undead" or "detect evil and good" for celestials and fiends. Nice job! I don't know why the spell would be available to Eldritch Knights though. It doesn't seem like a useful spell to take with the limited spell slots they have, plus it isn't an evocation or abjuration spell. Otherwise, a fun spell that is useful and fills a void I didn't realize was there!

Posted Mar 1, 2021Thank you, and in my mind I guess I see Eldritch Knights as a government's "witch hunters''. So going into a house or something and using the spell to find the rough wizard’s hiding place basement, more RP than functioning for a player I guess. XD
