Geopresence

Geopresence (minor) by Iczer

"Uh Oh....Looks like someone's broken into the mansion. again."

The character has the ability to lay down tiny spikes of energy from which he can remotely observe. These spikes are invisible to the naked eye (but may be visible to senses that can see in unusual wavelengths) and remain where positioned. At any time, the character can extend his senses to that point and examine it's surroundings with any of his available senses. The character keeps a continual, "watchdog" status with these spikes, even when not paying attention to them, and notices any grand or overwhelming even that occurs at these locations. (Trainspotter has his spikes set up over grand central station. Because he isn't paying attention, he fails to notice a number of muggings, the passage of several hare Krishnas and an anonymous exchange of cash between a known felon and a suspect in an ongoing case. He cannot fail to notice when an explosion goes off at that location though.)
The character can lay as many of these spikes as his ME score, plus 2 per level. When he wishes to lay down a new spike, he must cancel an older one. While he must be physically present to lay down a spike, he can cancel one from anywhere on the planet. He can view any spike he has placed from anywhere on a single planet.
At 3rd level, the character can 'speak' through his spikes if need be.
