Gen-Wyld: Beyond Natural

You gain the following benefits at all times.

Your senses are enhanced in the following way.

• Smell: Your nose is highly sensitive and can differentiate between scents the way a dog can, as well as recognize things you have smelled before.
• Sight: You can see perfectly in dark and even pitch-black environments. You suffer no dice penalty due to darkness.
• 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.
• Sight: You can see things that are up to a mile away as though you were only standing twenty feet away, provided your view is unobstructed.
• Touch: You can pick up on subtle differences between textures with ease, and can immediately find what you are looking for when rummaging (digging through trash, finding a needle in a haystack, etc), assuming it is actually present.
• Taste: You can recognize any flavor you have previously tasted and name it, and may determine the composition of something based on its taste.
• Hearing: You automatically know the origin location of any sound you hear, and you can tell which Action caused the sound.

Any senses which have been heightened cannot be overloaded. Battle Scars you receive cannot affect these senses.

The ward requires Concentration to monitor, though it will remain active until you deactivate it. The ward can be discovered if someone knows what they are looking for, but is otherwise inconspicuous and cannot be identified as a ward.

Your Ward records all activity it observes, regardless of whether or not you are actively monitoring it. This recording can be played back and referenced later.
