The Gaze of Absence in Dungeons & Dragons 5e

The Gaze of Absence

You can use your action to touch a willing Animal and perceive through its eyes until the end of your next turn. As long as the creature is on the same plane of existence as you, you can use your action on subsequent turns to maintain this connection, extending the duration until the end of your next turn. While perceiving through the other creature’s eyes, you benefit from any unique sight possessed by that creature, and you are blinded to your surroundings.
OR
You create an invisible sensor within range in a location familiar to you (a place you have visited or seen before) or in a prominent position that is unfamiliar to you (such as behind a door, around a corner, or in a grove of trees). The sensor remains in place for the duration, and it can’t be attacked or otherwise interacted with. You can use the chosen see-through the sensor as if you were in its space. A creature that can see the sensor (such as a creature benefiting from seeing Invisibility or truesight) sees a luminous, intangible orb about the size of your fist.
