How does detect magic work in RuneScape?
First to correct something: you cast detect magic on yourself, then you can focus on other targets to look for auras. The way that I have ruled detect magic is that it detects magic items (or anything that I rule to be similar to one) and the target’s of (non-instantaneous) spells and magic effects (including conjured creatures and items).
Can a Detect Magic be cast on an NPC?
A player in a game I run cast Detect Magic on an NPC, who had an unreasonable need to arrest the party, because he wanted to see if the NPC was under magical influence. My limited use of Detect Magic has always been cast on an object to see if it ‘contained’ but I was unsure what it can detect on a creature ‘that bears magic’.
Is there a way to detect the School of magic?
Yes, but no. It would detect that there is magic upon them, and if you used your action to look at the aura around the creature you would detect the school of magic (for example, Necromancy if they are blinded by the Blindness/Deafness spell).
