Tvo for scrying
Is there a wondrous item that allows user to do something else while it contentiously watch the scrying and recording everything which the person could fast forward and rewind so the caster could go on and do something else.
The day I find a game is the day that HL2 Episode 3 is released!
My Brandenburg Interactive AAR game for EUIV.

Re: Tvo for scrying
I think I read that in a comic somewhere...
There's nothing official I've heard of. I'm sure you could homebrew one."They couldn't know that the points from the mainline to the siding were frozen, and the signal should have been set at 'DANGER', but snow had forced it down."

Re: Tvo for scrying
Sadly, there doesn't seem to be anything like the nature of a camera (that I know of).
Modify Memory allows anyone who saw the scrying event to remember it with perfect clarity or the ability to implant a memory (in say, a homunculus) so that it can be retrieved later (with another Modify Memory). Perfect for your own use, but nothing that would count as evidence to another person short of revealing exact details that you could only know by witnessing the event.Homebrew Magic Items you might enjoy:
Coins Tokens of Fortune
Extra Spicy Peppers
Also, its time to think about Yeth Hounds in a whole new way

Re: Tvo for scrying
Intelligent magic item with, minor image (for scene selection) 10 ranks in autohypnosis (for perfect recollection of events) and major image. Only one recording, but it can be of any length.
Me: I'd get the paladin to help, but we might end up with a kid that believes in fairy tales.
DM: aye, and it's not like she's been saved by a mysterious little girl and a band of real live puppets from a bad man and worse step-sister to go live with the faries in the happy land.
Me: Yeah, a knight in shining armour might just bring her over the edge.

Re: Tvo for scrying
Why do you need minor image? If you've got major image in there anyway, that can do scene selection.

This kind of scene selection. (this is an image found by searching "scene selection" in google images)

Re: Tvo for scrying
Now, how do we fit in Mindrape and/or Efreeti Binding to make it better?

Re: Tvo for scrying
Mindrape an efreeti to get your tivo free?

Re: Tvo for scrying
What's stopping it from instead, say, Mindraping YOU into becoming its personal slave? You can't exactly mindrape it into submission, as constructs are immune to mind-affecting spells. You must have a contingency to cover this, but it still seems way to likely to go horribly, horribly wrong.

Re: Tvo for scrying
There's no particular need to build in 1/day to the Major Image. It makes it a little cheaper, but it's not a necessity.

Re: Tvo for scrying
Depends. I personally think the intelligent item rules should be stuck to pretty closely for spell selection, simply because giving it free any spell is a bit abusive. It is after all, extra actions.
