Fortuitous Intuition Eugh, so scared you had to throw in security?

2
The power to detect all nearby Security Systems.
Used by Phantom (Gustav) Aria, Created by GreenAppll.
(This Effect is not obviously Alien when used.You must actively and obviously be using Card.)

Phantom is a gambling man. Yet, he also has a intuition for what he usually does. Using this intuition, he hones in on security systems, allowing Neo-Genis to turn this special gift of his into a power. Then, he uses a card to tell his fortune, spinning it and fiddling with it as he catches the card and glances at this fortune, telling him what to watch for, for the next 2 hours.


Exert your Mind and spend two Actions performing the following ritual: throwing the card around, flipping it through the fingers as phantom whispers "cmon baby, show me my fortune today~". You must actively and obviously use Card to activate this Effect. You must maintain Concentration while activating this Effect, and it fails if you are interrupted.

You automatically detect all Security Systems 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.

If no Security Systems targets are within 300 feet of you, and then one enters range, you automatically detect it, even if this Effect is not active.

  • This includes any objects that come into range during activation.
  • This Effect does not satisfy the line of sight targeting requirement for other Effects.
