Basic Technique

Psychosensation: With this most rudimentary of Telekinetic manifestations, the Psion is capable of emitting enough force to tremble small items and raise shivers. The basic purpose of the radiation is not to startle the superstitious, it is a momentary scan, using Telekinetic forces as a form of radar sense, conferring a ‘snapshot’ of the surroundings.

System: Simply roll Psi and in that turn only a single wave of telekinetic force will pulse forth from the Psion, impacting and reflecting back information like sonar on all items in the surrounding Psi + successes meters radius. One success will be enough to ‘feel’ all solid items within the area within a rough proximity, two will provide an accurate mapping of solids and differentiate between living and inanimate things and sense the presence of extremes of heat or cold (freezers or open flame) and three or more successes will allow one to feel textures and begin to recognize the difference between items of stone or metal or wood (although the differences between concrete, granite and ceramic will remain inseparable) and to tell the approximate speed and direction of any moving items as well as rough estimations of temperature in the area. This pulse only lasts for an instant and in the 15 seconds between uses, things can change significantly as items move, fires start or people die, rendering this power no substitute for sight.
