DESCRIPTION
A circle dilates into existence in front of your face, and to your delight you can now see the nuisance that your allies were inadvertently blocking from your vision.
Reality Lens creates a small window in space whose opposite end is several feet or more away. The ends of the portal formed are each a 1-ft.-diameter circle, with the end closest to the subject a foot away from your face. The farther end can be placed up to a distance of 5ft. + 5 more feet for every 5 levels beyond 1st (to a maximum of 20 feet at level 16) away. The lenses always move in parallel, staying the same distance apart and tilting with your head. If they pass through or form in anything material, however, all that is visible is blackness, and nothing material can pass through the hole itself anyway (a person can walk through it, but cannot stab a dagger through it).
Care must be taken with this spell, for though the windows can only be seen from head-on, this means an aware opponent can make just as much use of Reality Lens as the caster, or they can block its view completely. Additionally, as long as you have the window in front of your face, you are considered flat-footed from the distraction. The window can be dismissed and returned with a swift action as long as the spell lasts.
