The psychic power to discern distant places/people with one’s mind. Also known as Remote Viewing.
Capability
The user can think of a place or person, and observe with their mind what they are presently doing. Users may view a persons present actions or may see landmarks. The user may or may not have to be near to the target. Some users may simply have the information, without having to think about it.
Limitations
- Users usually have to imagine their targets, no actual images shown
- requires deep concentration
- may happen unexpectedly
Associations
Users are often Clairvoyance as a secondary ability usually to accompany Telepathy, Psychokinesis,or Precognition but it's not uncommon for it to stand alone as well.
Personality
Yin (Darker than Black) channels her Clairvoyance through water
Clairvoyants often begin their lives as people-watchers. Not necessarily for any real intent, as they just like to check in on people, or have a first-hand idea of what the person they're watching is doing. They also like to develop their gift to a greater degree as to extend the mere sight of a person, place, or thing, and be able to pick up sounds of what is said, or what noises are happening, around the watched subject.
Clairvoyance gives the user a real sense of being there in the scene of the viewed, yet the user get's to remain anonymous. Because of this, Clairvoyants often become their own independent spies, and informants, dishing out secrets where and when they so choose.
Techniques
Some can perform:
- veridical dreaming: to dream actual ongoing far-off events.
- scrying: to use objects to view distant events or persons.
- sight sharing: to view another user of claivoyance sight.
