- Magic Map is a utility spell in ADOM. It allows the caster to reveal unexplored parts of the level. Magic Map is relatively useful, albeit expensive spell that allows for more flexible and faster exploration of dungeon levels. Each casting will reveal a portion of unexplored tiles on the level. Magic Map seems to target each tile individually checking whether it should be revealed or not; this leads to a more or less uniform distribution. Thus, even the first casting will allow the player to identify room structure of the level and predict the location of points of interest (staircases, shops, etc.)
- When you perform this ritual, choose a specific creature. You must have an object that is tied to the creature, such as a bit of hair, a favorite scarf, or a personal weapon. You hold the object in one hand and suspend the focus from the other hand, holding it above a map representing a region no larger than 50 by 50 miles. If the creature is in the area, the focus is drawn to the creature's exact location as depicted on the map. As you watch, the focus follows the creature's movement. Focus: A crystal plumb bob worth at least 100 gp, and a body part or personal object of the creature.

| Description
| - Magic Map is a utility spell in ADOM. It allows the caster to reveal unexplored parts of the level.
Magic Map is relatively useful, albeit expensive spell that allows for more flexible and faster exploration of dungeon levels. Each casting will reveal a portion of unexplored tiles on the level. Magic Map seems to target each tile individually checking whether it should be revealed or not; this leads to a more or less uniform distribution. Thus, even the first casting will allow the player to identify room structure of the level and predict the location of points of interest
While Magic Map is great for revealing the most vague picture of the level, it severely lacks in pin-point accuracy. Thus, attempting to use this spell to find the down staircase on the VDDL, altars, forges and other small objects is unlikely to provide results quickly and effectively.
As mentioned above, scrolls of magic mapping and crystals of knowledge can be used to replicate the effect of the spell. These items work in exact same way as the spell if they are cursed or uncursed, but are much more effective when blessed revealing the whole level at once.
Magic Map is not trained when no new parts of the level are revealed.

- When you perform this ritual, choose a specific creature. You must have an object that is tied to the creature, such as a bit of hair, a favorite scarf, or a personal weapon. You hold the object in one hand and suspend the focus from the other hand, holding it above a map representing a region no larger than 50 by 50 miles. If the creature is in the area, the focus is drawn to the creature's exact location as depicted on the map. As you watch, the focus follows the creature's movement. Your Arcana check determines the duration of the time during which you can pinpoint the creature's location. This ritual is only as accurate as the map that is used. Focus: A crystal plumb bob worth at least 100 gp, and a body part or personal object of the creature.
