Sound Technician's Innate Senses
"Just kind of a sense you get at some point"
In an instant, Michael can pick up discrepancies between even the smallest of sounds and frequencies. Sound is just a whole lotta waves and signals, and he's on the same wavelength.

Your senses are enhanced in the following way.
- Hearing: You may hear sounds of sub- and hyper-sonic frequencies, allowing you to hear tiny things (mice, insects, etc) better, and pick up on the vibrations of massive things (earthquakes, atmospheric disruptions, etc) long before others.
Any senses which have been heightened cannot be overloaded. Battle Scars you receive cannot affect these senses.
Any heightened senses require you to maintain Concentration to use, and do not apply to any passive Perception checks.
- Examples of overloading a sense include: an explosion causing temporary deafness, a bright light causing blindness, a sedative causing numbness, etc.

Quantum Perception
Seeing beyond the visible, sensing the imperceptible
Quantum Perception enhances Jessica's sensory capabilities beyond normal human limits. Initially manifesting as night vision, this power allows her to perceive the world with extraordinary clarity in low-light conditions. As Jessica hones this ability, she can potentially sharpen her other senses, tapping into a realm of heightened awareness. This power synergizes with her scientific expertise, enabling her to observe and analyze phenomena that others might miss, from microscopic details to subtle energy fluctuations.
