Detecting spirits without intellego

Hmm. IIRC, Creo spells cannot have a Target of Room anyway.

Not quite. This holds only for Creo spells that actually create something (ArM5 p.113 box Targets and Creo).

@Ovarwa

Then shouldn't a magus, perhaps with an easy Finesse roll, spont a T:Room CrIg spell that burns not quite everything in the room, but without requisites excluding those friends in the room he can perceive?

Let's put away that - indeed impossible - T: Room CrIg that burns everything or not quite in the room.

But a T: Room CrIm or MuIm (I don't care which Technique, and probably neither does raccoonmask) covering the targeted room with an illusion can keep those friends, plus two chairs, a cupboard and the fumy air in the room, still looking the same: the magus just makes them part of his illusion with an appropriate Finesse roll.

Cheers
