Detect Criminal Negligence, now on AMC (Find Traps)
« on: August 15, 2015, 05:41:29 PM »
He's an expert witness with an eye for crime. No trap escapes his notice. But when he finds himself caught up in love, will he have what it takes to escape the deadliest trap he's faced yet?

Find Traps lets you sense traps within line of sight. It defines traps as "anything that would inflict a sudden or unexpected effect you consider harmful or undesirable, which was specifically intended as such by its creator."

Lawyer: Is it true your company sold these vehicles despite knowing about the ignition malfunction?
Representative: No, of course not.
Lawyer: That's interesting. Because our expert witness's FIND TRAPS SPELL SAYS OTHERWISE.

But secretly... he's also a murderer, who kills other spellcasters who could compete with him on the market for such a cushy job...

At the end of season 1, a criminal using Nystul's Magic Aura to trick his Find Traps frames his detective close friend/budding romantic interest. Suspected for murder, she must convince him that she's innocent while bringing the real killer to justice.

Season 2 focuses on their tense reconciliation as she's deeply offended he believed she was the killer. And just as he begins to earn her trust again... she discovers his dark secret.

DUN DUN DUN.

As his world falls apart, will he do everything he can to keep her quiet ... for good?

yourself some dinner, smother your kids, pop in a movie, maybe
have a drink. It's fun, right? Wrong. Don't smother your kids."

Heh.
 :)
This reminds me of the wording for Magic Mantle.
(it's only a proximity alert otherwise, which an experienced party will be on their toes for anyways)
Bummer that Find Traps is LoS only to the limits of the range, Barb Eagle 6 is sad.
