11-18-06, 06:22 PM One of my PCs has a Dragon Familiar (which is cool and I am fine with). The Dragon has Blind Sense which the PC believes negates Invisibility.

I think the ability might let the dragon know that something is about but not what it is.

Blind Sight is sight much like how noraml creatures see but not based upon optical vision.

What do you think?

Do either of these abilities negate Invisibility?

No. Blind sense allows you to know which square an invisible or hiding something is in, and that is the entire purpose of the ability.
