The character augments his vision with the ability to see patterns of Essence. This Charm allows the character to  see motes, Essence-fueled effects,<br/>power and invisible but magical creatures and effects. These things become valid targets for the character’s visual Awareness rolls, including reﬂexive visual Awareness rolls.<br/>The ability to perceive Essence patterns has the following effects: All Charms are treated as Obvious with respect to the character. Dematerialized and invisible creatures and effects are considered visible. The character recognizes all artifacts, manses and demesnes as such. The character can automatically recognize a creature with Essence 4+ as a supernatural creature. <strong>Characters using Stealth to avoid detection are not automatically revealed by their Charms, Essence trait or carried artifacts—</strong>for the same reason that colorful clothing does not automatically void mundane attempts at stealth. Instead, add the  target’s Essence in dice to any attempt by the character to pierce mundane or magical Stealth.  Similarly, this Charm does not automatically void disguises, magical disguises and similar deceptions, although circumstances might warrant a bonus to see through them.<br/>If the character makes a conscious attempt to analyze what he sees, this Charm allows an (Intelligence + Occult) roll to do so. Identifying the exact effects of an unknown Charm or spell is difﬁculty 5. Gauging the rating of a person’s Essence trait, a demesne, a manse or an artifact has difﬁculty 2.<br/></div></div><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">3m personal Judge's Ear Technique</div><div class="spoiler_body">Cost: 3m; Mins:  Investigation 2, Essence 1; Type: Reﬂexive (Step 1)<br/>Keywords:  Combo-OK<br/>Duration: One scene<br/>Prerequisite Charms: Any Investigation Excellency<br/>The Lawgivers are the guardians of truth. This Charm allows the character to recognize as lies all deliberate lies presented to her. The character can also recognize the deliberate use of half-truths, though doing so does not tell her which part of the statement is true. If another Charm contests these effects (see p. 179), add the character’s Essence in automatic successes to the (Perception + Investigation) roll to oppose the other Charm.</div></div><br/>Sky sat thoughtfully for a few moments as she played out the events in her mind.  She glanced to Imara and started to give her a reassuring smile when the problems struck.  Finishing up her conversation with Crow until he left, Sky then followed into the bedroom, bringing a chair with her so that she could continue the discussion with Imara.  "It's quite understandable," Sky said in response to Imara's apology.<br/><br/>Whatever Crow had done, Imara's sudden difficulty had occurred within moments of the eruption of Crow's energy.  Sky couldn't be certain that the two were connected, but she didn't believe in coincidence.  The matter would no doubt soon enough be confirmed, especially if others had similar maladies.  She snapped open her book to write, her expression troubled but deciding to give Imara the only comfort that Sky had to give right now.<br/><br/>"Naturally I won't be going to any of the Deathlords for knowledge," Sky reassured.  "I might accept information freely given, but trades rarely go so well.  With the usefulness of the deathknights already being brought into question, I'm certainly not going to risk it.<br/><br/>She took a breath.  "If you're feeling up to it, I would appreciate knowing your abilities in order to help me plan ahead."  She left unspoken, though it was evident in her tone, that Imara was welcome to rest and relax if she didn't feel up to it.  If nothing else, Sky wanted to help take her mind off the pain, as well as allow her more of a chance to put on a stern and unyielding visage.
