A shiver wracks Grace and Obedienceโs body and a faint blue glow illuminates the overlapped eye tattoo on their left temple. They have a moment of vertigo as their consciousness is pulled back and forth from beyond the โveilโ to see who else is there.
The girlsโ power continues to grow with their search for the mess they made by opening Pandoraโs Box. Theyโve already gotten ahold of the feeling they get when they know theyโre headed towards a spirit of interest; theyโll be able to conjure up that feeling again from now on.

This charm typically comes on a necklace or bracelet of some kind, potentially with other consumable rune charms. When an enemy approaches in an otherwise calm situation it becomes noticeably warm to the user, imbuing them with instinctive knowledge on their relative location. If one is feeling exceptionally threatened, one can trace the pattern of the rune for several seconds while chanting the words engraved on the reverse side of the charm (exact words may vary depending on who the charm was made for), channeling the energy within it to activate its full detection and reveal the locations of all enemies for the next hour. Overuse, however may strain the mind and lead to paranoid or unhinged thoughts patterns.
No change for rework

Dominic's paranoia has lead to him to develop yet another means of redundant detection that goes beyond the pale of normal reason. By syncing a computer to his personal biometrics he can probe for others watching him by sync'ing to the nanomachines they breathed in through the chemtrails in the air. Once that's done, he knows where they are, and if he tunes it correctly he can even pair with a single watcher outside of range.

The caster kneels while closing their eyes and begins to hum. Small rings of magenta, yellow, and blue begin pulsing out of the caster's head as they trace a circle in the ground with the butt of a revolver.
The humming usually reflects the general mood of those in it's initial range. An angry crowd will cause the user to feel compelled to hum a loud and dissonant tone, while more peaceful groups will inspire light and steadier tones. If there's no mood to read, or there is a sufficient mix of emotions, the caster will end up humming the last song that was stuck in their head. Mercifully, it is guaranteed to not get stuck again from this exercise.
Exert your Mind (unless you win a coin flip) and spend two Actions performing the following ritual: Take a knee, close your eyes, hum whatever come naturally, and trace a circle in the ground with the butt of your gun.

The "Reaper" Assault Helmet is the signature piece of the Future Soldier's arsenal. It has a sleek, design and is made of a mysterious matte-metallic alloy. The wearer's face is exposed normally, but when a battle begins, a blue holographic visor flickers to life in front of the eyes. This HUD contains information about the soldier's ammunition and shield status, but more significantly can detect enemy combatants. Anyone nearby who is holding a weapon is painted with a red dot that follows them in real time. This allows the Future Soldier to fire at painted targets in the dark, detect ambushes lurking around corners, and grants an overall tactical advantage.
This Effect activates whenever combat begins. It does not require an Action or Exertion.
