Predator's Senses "...When was the last time you had a bath?"
Ally's eyes have gained flecks of gold in them, and each breath is just a little deeper than before.
She no longer reaches for her torch in the darkness.
There was no sudden change, no great revelation. But after the pills she'd been given ran out, her sleep became uneasy, restless. The darkness faded away some, and scents became stronger.
Everything one needs to hunt in the night.
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.
Any senses which have been heightened cannot be overloaded. Battle Scars you receive cannot affect these senses.
- Examples of overloading a sense include: an explosion causing temporary deafness, a bright light causing blindness, a sedative causing numbness, etc.

OWL - The Occult Wildlife Landing
The Occult Wildlife Landing (OWL) is a nonprofit organization that advocates for the rights of supernatural creatures to live a life unmolested by humanity’s relentless spread and greed.
While OWL has become the de-facto head of the conservationist movement in the United States, many claim it’s not as innocent as it appears. A number of small, seemingly-disconnected terrorist cells wear the OWL insignia with pride. These groups– which tend to contain a disproportionate number of supernatural creatures and beings– commit high-profile acts of public violence with the intent of furthering OWL’s core objectives. In the past, they’ve blown up oil pipelines, stopped development projects, and even infected congregations of people with mutagenic viruses.
OWL denies any involvement with these so-called “OWL-inspired terrorist organizations” (or OITOs for short). However, many people conflate the two and consider OWL itself to be a terrorist organization.
One thing is for certain: when OWL sends a blast to its followers urging protest, they’re taken seriously.

Can't Run, Can't Hide, Can't Survive.
A single movement, a single twitch, and I'll be over your body.
My mind races with new information. I can understand when somebody is about to move, not just from their stance or their facial expression... Their very own mind and muscular strain and tremor gives away their reaction, and their fear is palpable.

Loa loa microcosmic perspective and parasitoid pheromone registration
Don’t image search for “loa loa filariasis”
Eva has supernatural loa loa worms homed in her eyes. The worms allow her to perceive things much smaller than would normally be possible with human sight. They may sometimes be seen squiggling just under the surface of her eye when she uses this ability.
A small collection of parasitoid wasps inhabit the base of Eva’s nasal cavity. She can call upon them to distinguish scents from the environment.
