¶ Clairsentience
Clairsentience is the subject related to the sensing of things related to the mind or consciousness. Psions with an aptitude in clairsentience are called clairsentients or empaths. As a sensory subject, clairsentience is the ability to extend your cognitive awareness outside your immediate perception, in order to sense matters of the mind such as the emotional state of others. Many clairsentience abilities are passive, though some require the psion’s focus to use them. People who awaken with an aptitude towards clairsentience tend to be either very social people, or very withdrawn people that hold a desire to understand others.
Example Abilities:
- Emotion Reading
- Consciousness clairvoyance (Consciousness Detection)
- Crowd reading
- Remote Viewing (Scrying)
