Notes
- Game files suggest in BG3 version the spell would work on only one creature type at a time, and celestials and fey are missing from that list. In 5e the spell says "Choose one or more of the following types of creatures: celestials, elementals, fey, fiends, or undead."

Classes:
- Class Level 1: Bard, Wizard, and Knowledge Domain
Notes
- In BG3 you learn all stats of an item by default and all effects affecting a creature can be seen in the examine window, making this spell useless in BG3, which is probably why it was cut.
