For most species the default line of sight (LOS) is a 15x15 square (for Barachim it is a 17x17 square).
There are some ways to modify your line of sight:
- The spell Darkness reduces LOS by 25%. The same effect is also provided by the Robe of Night.
- The demonspawn-exclusive nightstalker mutation reduces LOS by 1, 2, or 3 tiles depending on rank.
The following drawing shows tiles within the default field of view with their grid distance.

History
In 0.20 Barachim, a species with the unique +LOS mutation, were added.
Prior to 0.19, the Shadow card existed and could be used to further reduce the player's LOS.
Prior to 0.18, the lantern of shadows existed and could be used to further reduce the player's LOS.
Prior to 0.17, line of sight was circular with a radius of about 8.
In 0.7, the developers made an undocumented change to the LOS. Ranges are circular now, so every spell and ability that reaches a set distance got about two squares lopped off the diagonals. Stealthy characters can now reach their target in 5 squares (instead of 8) at certain angles.
