You can track a creature through the magical signature it leaves behind after using a teleport or plane shift effect.
Prerequisite: Alertness, Track, Survival 15 ranks.
Benefit: Using the Track feat, you can follow tracks even if your quarry has used a teleport or plane shift effect to escape. When the you reach the location at which the magical method of escape was employed, you can attempt a Survival check (DC 30). Success means you are aware that a teleport or plane shift effect has been used. If your check result beats the DC by 10 or more, you know which effect was used. If your check result beats the DC by 15 or more, you know the direction in which your quarry has moved (in the case of teleportation) or the destination plane (in the case of plane shift). In any case, if you locate the creature's tracks within hour per character level, you can instantly identify them as your quarry's and attempt another Survival check (DCs as given in the Survival skill description in the Player's Handbook) to determine how fresh they are.
