¶ ESP
Sinji's eyes widened, sniffing the air, head rising until he was looking up.
"What is it?" asked Masina.
"The most gold I have ever smelled, sitting above the ceiling... the result of failing this test," he said, shivering, "..is getting crushed by gold."
ESP is the subject related to the sensing of matter or energy. Psions with an aptitude in ESP are called espers. As a sensory subject, ESP is the ability to extend your cognitive awareness outside of your immediate perception in order to sense what you wouldn’t normally be able to sense. Many ESP abilities are passive, always working whereas some require the esper to expand their focus to use them. The personality of those who have aptitude with ESP tend to be passive observers of the world around them; they awaken from a desire to see more than what is immediately in front of them. Espers make up the vast majority of psions, and many espers aren’t even aware that they are using psionics. People awakening as espers often don’t realize they have awoken, and as a result often don’t learn the other basic techniques of psions that allow them to sense flux.
Example Abilities (MAY REQUIRE APP TO USE- CONSULT COMMON ABILITY LIST ON FORUMS):
