You possess supernaturally heightened senses.
Used by Aurel Anderson, Created by August.
(This Effect may or may not be obviously Alien.)

Aurel's eyes are different from the average, allowing him to see more than the average individual, yet he can never turn them off; it constantly hurts to use without some facial covering. They are easy to overload, as he has soon found out, painfully.


You gain the following benefits at all times.

Your senses are enhanced in the following way.

  • Thermal: You are able to "see" heat signatures within your line of sight.
  • Sight: You can see things that are normally invisible to the naked eye, such as fingerprints and bacteria.

  • Your thermal vision allows you to judge temperatures of surfaces fairly accurately as long as they are within livable temperatures.
  • Your microscopic vision requires a close look at a very small, specific area to use. It does not grant increased distance vision, it simply provides a higher resolution, allowing you to see finer and finer detail.
