====== CLAIRVOYANCE ======
**Prerequisite**: [[Psychic]]

A true clairvoyant has the ability to see distant
locations through intense concentration as if they
were actually there. In the past, this talent was found
in tribal ‘seers’ and visionaries. During the Cold
War this was called ‘Remote Viewing’ as teams of
intelligence psychics tried to spy on distant countries
to uncover secret bases and weapons.

===== Effect =====
Clairvoyance is a Special Trait, requiring
the character to already have the Psychic trait.
Clairvoyance costs 2 points. The character can see
into other locations without actually being there or
having to rely on technology. It will cost a Story Point
to activate this ability and the range is limited to the
character’s Resolve – the higher their Resolve, the
further away they can see. Often these ‘visions’ will
be flashes or mere glimpses into another place, but
with practice, concentration and a high Resolve, the
experience can be prolonged and immersive.

Clairvoyance uses the character’s innate abilities,
rather than a skill, so Awareness and Resolve are
used to view distant locations. People at the spied
location with the Psychic Training trait can sense
they are being watched or observed and may try to
resist.
