So, this is primarily for primes, but I'll let anyone answer it. I may try to do some statistics on the result, if I get sufficient energy. I really need to get my clients to answer it, but I don't know how to do that discreetly.

I understand that the answer to the question "how much do you lust for Cani" is subtle and tricky. Do I mean -- how much do you secretly want them? How much do you try to sleep with them? How much do you succeed in sleeping with them? Some other choice? Well, pretty much, I do mean that, more or less any of that. I will let you take your own definition, though I am more interested in what you like than what you do. This isn't a very careful survey anyhow.

Sure... but then you're into the 'takes a minute and is easy to fool with illusidor' part since you've got the wall doing a personal inspection of each person. And the wall needs to be using its own senses, which are probably less acute than the wizard that made it (since that's how imbuing spells with skills generally works; see the baking example) -- the magical enhancements that would make it better at sensing a particular kind of magic do use Kennoc.

I think you'd end up with the wall being easy for anyone good enough to work on the wall to fool, or using magic that gives a lot of false positives, or (more likely) *both*.

Thinking about it, the most reasonable way to do it would be to have the wall's monster sensing feature look at people outside the wall, a good distance away, so that the guards have time to investigate any triggered alarm and decide whether or not to close the gate before it gets there. You really, really, really don't want the wall to take automatic action on its own except against people who try to sneak past by flying over or burrowing under or (maybe) being invisible or something.
