Spectrographic Vision (minor) by Taalismn

"Yep....those sure are some pretty colors...that's pretty impressive for a gasoline, nitroglycerine, and sodium explosive mix...."

The superbeing's vision is so acute that he can separate out the spectrum of light generated/reflected/refracted through materials, and see their spectrographic wavelength profile. This allows the superbeing to be able to make an educated guess as to their chemical composition. The superbeing can also detect red/blue shift in distant speeding objects, and get an idea whether they are coming closer or moving away from the POV.

Range: Line of Sight
Base Skill: 25%+5% per per level of experience to discern composition from reflected/refracted light, +10% if the material is actually burning/candescing. +5% if Chemistry skill is taken, +10% if Chemistry Analytical is taken.
Bonuses: +10% to Chemistry skills
