The power to detect lies. Not to be confused with Telepathy or the ability to force one to tell the truth.
Also Called
- Intuitive Polygraphy
- Mendancity Detection
Capability
The user can sense the presence of lies from a person. Can’t distinguish truth as if by mind-reading, users simply are aware of truth.
Applications
- Can tell how if a person lies by sensing their heart beat or pulse.
- Judge the person's facial expressions to tell they're lying.
Limits
- May not differentiate between a white lie or a secret.
- May not be able to differentiate lies if subject/targets have no pulse difference.
- Pace makers just beat at one pace so it does not register on a polygraph
- Dual 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.
