Heightened Hearing

You are possessed of unnaturally acute hearing.

You detect the presence of creatures within a radius of (3+Level*2,40 if max)
Chance to identify nearby detected creatures

If Heightened Hearing is leveled to 10, the entire screen gets affected. Unlike Clairvoyance, Heightened Hearing cannot detect anything other than creatures. However, it is automatically activated, does not run out, and does not require a turn to cast.

Chance of Identification

The formula for the chance of correctly identifying a creature is ${\frac {(100+10\times {\text{Level}})\times 100}{({\text{distance to listener}}+9)^{2}}}\%$

If this percentage is greater than a random roll between 1 and 100, the creature is identified as their tile.^[1] If not, a ? is displayed instead.
