Spy Glass
Alchemy, Alchemical device
A small telescope of two lenses in a metal tube that anyone can use.
From the book
A small telescope: two lenses mounted in a tube of metal. It takes ordinary glass materials plus 1 lb. of a strong, malleable metal. The most powerful spy glass usually magnifies up to 100 times, and any character can use one; it can also extend the range at which a character can read lips.
Every alchemical device needs a work area or laboratory plus two tool sets costing 25 G.P. each, one for metal and one for glass. A device takes a week to build (the Rod of Detection takes two), and the chance of success is 75% +2% per level of ability.
