This supernatural Contractor's gift, "Attention to Detail," allows one to perceive the world in an unprecedented microscopic scale with their naked eye, such as fingerprints on surfaces from several meters away, the grooves and patterns in materials at a microscopic level, and even single-celled organisms floating in the air or in a drop of water. The power extends to reading the subtlest body language cues, making it invaluable in understanding intentions or lies without words.

When activating this gift, the sensation is akin to a wave of focused energy converging on one's eyes, sharpening their vision exponentially. It's as if the world slows down around them, allowing every minute detail to stand out with vivid clarity. The sensation is not painful but intensely immersive, creating a hyper-aware state where details pop out, highlighted as if illuminated by an unseen light. This transition from normal to enhanced perception is smooth, feeling natural rather than jarring, as if the mind and vision are simply adjusting the focus on a lens to reveal what was always hidden in plain sight.

The origin of the power is deeply rooted in an ancient pact made between the Contractor's ancestors and a primordial entity that embodies the essence of observation and knowledge. This entity, fascinated by the human desire for understanding and mastery over their environment, granted the Contractor's bloodline the ability to see beyond the veil of the macroscopic world.

The gift of "Attention to Detail" is not just a tool but a window into the complexity of the universe, offering insights that can unravel mysteries, solve crimes, or unlock the secrets of nature itself. However, the depth of detail one can perceive also means one must learn to filter the overwhelming influx of information to focus on what is truly important, a skill that is honed through experience and meditation.

Your senses are enhanced in the following way.

  • Sight: You can see things that are normally invisible to the naked eye, such as fingerprints and bacteria.
