Granted Features

Automatic:

For 10 minutes, you comprehend and verbally communicate with Beasts, using Influence skill options with them; Beasts share information about nearby locations, monsters, and events they perceived within the past day. Ritual casting available. Search fit: animal information gathering, Beast communication, reconnaissance from local creatures.

Communication with plants in a 30-foot emanation for 10 minutes without concentration. You question plants about creatures, weather, and events from the past day, command them to move branches or tendrils, and convert plant-caused difficult terrain to ordinary or vice versa for the duration. Plant creatures respond as if sharing a common language. Search fit: reconnaissance via plant witnesses, terrain manipulation, plant communication.

You grant the semblance of life to a corpse of your choice within range, allowing it to answer questions you pose. The corpse must have a mouth, and this spell fails if the deceased creature was Undead when it died. The spell also fails if the corpse was the target of this spell within the past 10 days. Until the spell ends, you can ask the corpse up to five questions. The corpse knows only what it knew in life, including the languages it knew. Answers are usually brief, cryptic, or repetitive, and the corpse is under no compulsion to offer a truthful answer if you are antagonistic toward it or it recognizes you as an enemy. This spell doesn't return the creature's soul to its body, only its animating spirit. Thus, the corpse can't learn new information, doesn't comprehend anything that has happened since it died, and can't speculate about future events.
