Description: The thaumaturge causes a body of water to becoming (sic) a scrying pool, able to center on a person or location. The caster is able to see and hear as if he was personally there. Natural pools and bowls of water are often the means of viewing through this magic. Smaller (no larger than a child's pool), still (better for viewing) bodies of water are considered best for this. This ritual requires a bit of owl's blood to be mixed in with the water.
System: Although this magic is similar to the Auspex power of Clairvoyance, it does have its differences. First, the caster cannot use additional Auspex powers through the scry magic. Second, if used to center on a person, the magus must have a personal item of the individual's in his possession, or he must know the subject's True Name. Third, if a location is the center of the Scry, this location cannot be changed throughout the duration of the ritual. this ritual lasts for a number of hours equal to the number of successes for the casting. The thaumaturge only has to concentrate during this duration to view scenes through the water.
Errata: The caster may use center Scry on an item that bears his or her own psychic impression (and thus could be used to target the caster with a sending).
