“What…you thought I didn’t see you there”

The character’s whole body acts like the human eye, turning any light that strikes it into optical images. Effectively the character has a kind of 360 degree vision, but has the advantages of being able to use a pointed finger as a periscope to look over walls, around corners and inside sensitive electronics. A bare foot automatically ‘sees’ under nearby couches (and up lady’s skirts if so inclined… a great party trick.)

Other bonuses:

+2 to initiative, and cannot be snuck up on, unless wearing clothing all over his body

+4 to perception checks (If used in your game)

+10% to detect ambush, and detect traps. +5% to electrical and mechanical skills (where being able to get a close and detailed look would help)

All vision powers can be used through his body.

Effectively immune to blindness. While his actual eyes might suffer blindness or even damage, the character can still use his eyelids to see. Bright light and teargas do not impede his skin’s ability to see.

+2 to make aimed, and called shots. In many cases, the character can look straight down the barrel by looking through his knuckles holding the firearm.

The character is immune to the disorientation of seeing through every aspect of his skin (and can turn it off where necessary… imagine looking through your armpits on a sweaty day)
