Smell Explosives Nothing like the smell of fresh C-4 in the morning
Ellis has spent so much time working with explosives that he can distinctly remember how they smell, to the point where he can pinpoint the location of any explosives or volatile chemicals that are nearby simply by sniffing the air.
Exert your Mind and spend an Action to activate.
You automatically detect all volatile chemicals and explosives within 50 feet of you for the next ten minutes. You have a clear sense of both the distance and direction towards any detected items. You get details of what each detected item is, as if you've glanced at each object.
Even while this Effect is not active, if any volatile chemicals or explosives come within 50 feet of you, you may roll Perception + Alertness, Difficulty 7 to detect them.

Spirit Walk
“Tie my spirits to those that are bound, shred it and spread it on the winds around.”
Penny cuts her hand on the surface, and writes an inscription in a language as old as life. Her reflection changes to Valerie, and her soul is shredded into pieces, attaching to every item in the area.
Take a Severity-1 Injury and spend at least two Actions performing the following ritual: she cuts her body and starts to write an incantation on the surface in blood to activate. You must actively and obviously use a surface reflective enough to see your face to activate this Effect. You must maintain Concentration while activating this Effect, and it fails if you are interrupted. Make a Trauma roll when you activate this Effect.
You automatically detect all items imbued with spiritual energy within 1 mile of you for the next ten minutes. You have a clear sense of both the distance and direction towards any detected items. You get details of what each detected item is, as if you've glanced at each object.
Even if there are no items imbued with spiritual energy within 1 mile of you, you become aware of the direction the closest one is in, as well as a rough sense of its distance from you.
Forensic Intuition
Harold Polk’s Forensic Intuition is a unique extension of his mastery of Speech Act Theory, enabling him to interpret traces of past actions as though they were lingering “speech acts” left behind. By focusing his mind, Harold attunes himself to the silent “statements” made by evidence of crimes, interpreting each item as a residual expression of intent and action. To him, every piece of evidence is a fragment of an unspoken story, a series of “acts” that reveal themselves under his scrutiny.
For an hour after activating this ability, Harold senses the presence, distance, and direction of all evidence of crimes within 50 feet, as if these traces are calling to him, revealing their locations and the intent behind their concealment. His understanding of Speech Act Theory allows him to “read” the manner in which each piece of evidence was hidden or secured, making him instinctively aware of the techniques used to disguise it and the steps required to access it. Harold’s mind treats these traces as hidden messages, piecing together actions and motives to uncover truths buried in silence. Through this heightened awareness, Harold becomes a linguistic detective, reading evidence as if it were the remnants of a conversation between crime and concealment.
Exert your Mind and spend one minute.

Seeking Powder
I was a little curious why he bought so much makeup at the mall.
The Thief casts a container's worth of fine powder into the air. The particulates are drawn to any sort of object that is designed to detect people, including tripwires, security cameras, detection lasers, heat sensors, etc. The powder will not trigger these devices or interfere with their operation, but it does reveal their presence to the Thief.
The cloud drifts and swirls, subtly following the Thief for a minute.
