Is there a spell that lets you see through another creature's eyes?


Pathfinder First Edition General Discussion


By this I mean you don't control the creature, you're just like a "passenger" who can see what it's seeing (and, presumably, hear what it hears as well or the spell wouldn't be that useful.)

There are two spells like that (from the top of my head, that is): Witness and Riding Possession.

Witness allows you to link your senses to another individual within long range, and lasts 1 minute per casterlevel. Riding Possession works like possession, except that you sneakily journey along while the target is none the wiser. This one lasts for 1 hour per casterlevel.


Does Riding Possession let you sense stuff through all their senses? I think so. Also, a related question I thought of: if a possessed creature get damaged can the possessor feel pain also?

Riding Possession works like regular Possession, except that you cannot make their body do as you please. Since you have access to the victim's senses with regular Possession, I'd say that you also have access to them with Riding Possession.

As for feeling pain from damage; flavorwise I'd allow feeling pain, but ruleswise the possessor takes no damage or any other kind of effects that the victim's body experiences.
