Changes: Lie Detection

Revision as of 18:45, 24 January 2020

"Contract...I am thou, thou art I...The forbidden wisdom has been released. No mysteries...no illusions shall deceive you any more"

― Necronomicon (Persona 5)

"This taste...Is the taste of liar!! Giorno Giovanna!!"

― Bruno Bucciarati (JoJo's Bizarre Adventure Part V/5: Golden Wind/Vento Aureo)

The power to detect lies. Not to be confused with Telepathy or Truth Inducement. Opposite to Truth Detection.

The user can sense when they are lied to by various means.

Empathy by reading the emotions of another person to try and see if they are telling the truth.
Enhanced Hearing by hearing the heartbeat increase.
Enhanced Smell by smelling pheromones.
Enhanced Vision by seeing physical body ticks, such as twitching fingers or an increase in blinking.
Seismic Sense by reading the vibration from one's heart.
Precognition by using intuition to know that it is a lie.

Divided Mind would allow a user to defeat this technique, by only allowing one personality to know.
Power can be subconsciously blocked when around someone the person trusts. Say a best friend or a family member.
Versions based on emotions are useless against Apathy.
May not differentiate between a white lie or a secret.
Versions based on pulse difference may not be able to differentiate lies if subject/targets have no pulse difference.
- Pacemakers just beat at one pace.
- Those who are skilled can control their heartbeat or emotions.
May not work against brainwashed targets.
May not be able to sense the reason behind the lie.
May be based on what the target believes to be true.
