Eavesdrop
One of those uses of Air magick not many immediately think of, it is really easy to eavesdrop on all kinds of conversations if one is intellectually sharp, with a quick mind and well practiced in filtering audible information, which all Opal Magisters are as part of their education.
Effect
Basic Effects: One may not consider the idea, for it is most commonly the domain of the Onyx Order, but those of the Opal Order have spell forms that most definitely can be applied to spy and stealth like activities, and here is the most shining example. Focusing your manipulations of the Opal Currents, keeping them subtle, but altering the flows of breezes and the wind around the you in an area, you hear everything. Every conversation, every spoken word or externally audible sound, a plethora of audible information becomes available to you, as you maintain this spell-form and potentially as you travel. Most commonly used in busy cities. For the duration, you do not need Perception to hear anything being said or any audible noises within range of you, you just do, as they whisper through the air to you.
Side/Secondary Effects
Tier II Effects: Your radius increases to 75 feet, and you can maintain the spell-form for up to 20 minutes.
Tier III Effects: Your radius increased to 100 feet, and you can maintain the spell-from for up to 30 minutes.
Tier III Effects: Your radius increased to 100 feet, and you can maintain the spell-from for up to 30 minutes.
Manifestation
Tyries smirked as he heard the whispered conversation from the other room, they were talking about him, the young elf blushed, and his chest puffed out with pride then. Oh the things they were saying about him were vulgar to be sure, but quite complimentary. Of course his demeanor changed not but a moment later as but two floors down, the apprentice heard the stern voice of his master, Victor Olfenhiem, speaking to the mistress of this fine establishment. "Yes I am sure he paid quite well, and you do not wish to betray a client in their time of....relaxation in your fine establishment. However he is a magister's apprentice, my own in fact, and has taken these hours of relaxation without explicit permission. Now would you be so kind as to..."
The sudden stop told Tyries his master had noticed the subtle breeze and its odd behavior. Ever astute was the damned old windbag, and he began releasing his focus on the spell-form. Before he could though, his master's voice drifted to him then, empowered, obviously displeased. "Tyries, I see the air currents, you fool boy. You are lucky I am forgiving, for that is a true breach of protocol, I could have you executed. I will merely be satisfied with forty lashes and 20 days of abstinence of all but bread and water, a proper lesson for your foolishness!!"
