Neurovision

Neurovision [minor] by Iczer

'I know how you think, and knowledge is power'

The character can see the neural energy inside a living being. Mostly, this is the brain, but it includes the network of nerves in a living body.
When looking at a living being within about 60 feet, the character can determine the individual's

• IQ, ME and MA
• Presence of psionic powers
• General education level (and has a 30% +5% per level chance of identifying the highest skill a target has)
• Alignment
• Awake or asleep (sometimes an important distinction)

In addition, the character can see these neurological patterns in pitch blackness and through smoke and mist, in short, able to see and defend himself against invisible and shrouded opponents (though fog and smoke obfuscate these signals after 30 or so feet).
The character recognizes the difference between human and non human nervous systems, and has a small chance (30% +5% per level) of recognizing a familiar 'brain'.
