I can't find it. Which publication has 'Detect Emotions'?
Its in the Emotion Domain Spell list in Craig Campbell's Eye of the Night Article but it's not in my spell list and it's not in the Consolidated Spell list over at WoTC - so its new or in Dragon or Dungeon - somewhere.
Craig Campbell here.
Detect Emotions was one of two spells that were cut for space limitations (and the adding of a few other, more important bits). It was referenced in the domain and in one of the feats. When it got nixed, it was removed from the feat, but not the domain, apparently. (Bad Jason, shame on you.)
Use Detect Thoughts instead. That's what they did with the feat. Or you can recreate Detect Emotions by using Detect Evil as a base (for range, duration, etc.) and having it detect the primary emotion felt by the targets (love, hate, compassion, joy, fear, anger, etc.) and the relative level of the emotion. I can't reprint the spell, but that was the gist of it.

D'oh. I thought we had caught that one but it slipped through the cracks. Detect thoughts could replace it, as could cause fear (which was our orignal thought.. that did not make it in).
