SIGNATURE SCROLL name of scroll: Aura Tracking affinities used: Divination exclusivity: anyone with divination can learn it description: Secretly created as a way to keep tabs on his not boyfriend when he’s being dumb. Charani created a spell that allows for a diviner to track another persons aura via a mental map. When used the witch can pinpoint the location of the person in their mind.

Unfamiliar auras require an object or relative of the person to track properly. Aura manipulation will throw off the location giving even less details.
