The ancient art of Dowsing allows the Psychic Sensitive to tune into the vibrations of hidden or lost things. Traditionally used to find hidden groundwater, the practice grew to find other resources, with Dowsing being employed to look for oils reserves or gold.
Items of great sentimental value shine like a beacon to this method of Divination, as well as hidden resources, such as caches of food/supplies, stores of groundwater, or similar. This time honored tradition requires a dowsing rod, either a forked stick or tuning fork, to function.
Antiquities: Anything that is both Old & Valuable
Unclaimed Resources: Resources such as Water, Oil, Metals, Wealth that are not owned by anyone
Exert your Mind and spend one minute. You must actively and obviously use a Dowsing Rod to activate this Effect.
You automatically detect all Unclaimed Resources and Antiquities within 300 feet of you for the next hour. You have a clear sense of both the distance and direction towards any detected items. When you detect objects, instead of learning nothing about them, you may observe each object with all of your senses.
