'''Dowsing''' is a utility spell, useful for relocating objects the user once touched. {{Perk|Kikwi|inline=no}}

Casting this spell requires two distinct components. First, the user must physically touch an object or being to be found, and mentally make a note to magically store the essence of that creature. How well and for how long this essence is stored seems to depend on the caster's memory, as it is usually forgotten if the caster doesn't make a mental note to remember it. It can be difficult to remember several essences at once, unless they are regularly used.

Once the caster has a dowsing essence, she can then imbue this essence into the tip of any oblong, nonliving instrument smaller than her--from a rod, to a sword, to a fork. The enchanted instrument will vibrate when its imbued tip is pointed in the direction of the object from which the essence was taken. If the object to be found is near, the instrument will vibrate more violently than if it is far. The instrument will continue to vibrate like this until it is affected by another [[:Category:Spells|spell]], it touches the object to be found, or the caster places a Dowsing enchantment on a new instrument.

+Casting this spell requires two distinct components.  The user must first physically touch a part of an object or being to be found (such as a piece of gold, or hair from a missing person), the "essence" to be used while dowsing.  Once the caster has a dowsing essence, she can then imbue this essence into the tip of any oblong instrument she can wield--such as cane, a sword, or a fork.  The enchanted instrument will vibrate when its tip is pointed in the direction of the object to be found.  If the object is near, the instrument will vibrate more violently than if it is far.  Though it is difficult to detect vibrations from extremely far distances, Dowsing can work from on practically any object in all of [[Hyrule]], regardless of distance.
