Example Messaging:	Failure: You sense that <Player> is about, but can not pinpoint her location. Slight success: You see a very vague vision of <Player> at [Location, Room Name]. Perfect: You'll see the full room description at <Player>'s location as if you were in the room and had typed LOOK.
Devices/Tattoos:	Item:Translucent white fishbone, Translucent white fishbone

Requires Clear Vision to be active.
In addition to the direct effect of locating a player, this also creates a lingering effect in the room you located, the strength of which differs based on the success of your locate:

Partial success: The lingering effect can be backtraced by a skilled Moon Mage and acts as a room-based anchor for the Riftal Summons spell.
Full success: The same, plus the lingering effect enables the located player to be used as an anchor for Shift Moonbeam.
