By observing a creature and casting this spell, the mage can discern details such as the species, age, sex, and overall health of a plant or animal, including humans. She may identify how many dots in Physical Attributes the subject has. Any illnesses or injuries, including Personal Tilts and Conditions, suffered by the creature become obvious to her sight. This spell identifies supernatural (but still living) creatures as unknown species, even if they take a human form, unless the mage has studied their kind before. Undead beings do not register to this spell.
+1 Reach: The player may learn a specific Physical Attribute rating of the subject, rather than the total number of dots.
