The Dragon Slayer has carved a modified rune onto a stone and added it to their necklace, expanding its range from the detection of dragons and their kin to the detection of all monstrous creatures. The runestone lights up with a magical glow when it detects a monster nearby, and can have its accuracy improved by empowering it with additional mana.

Exert your Mind and spend an Action.

You automatically detect the closest of any Monsters within 50 feet of you for the next hour. This includes any who come within range during the duration. You have a sense their direction and distance.
