The power to detect lies. Not to be confused with Telepathy. Also known as Intuitive Polygraphy.

Capability

The user can sense the presence of lies from a person. When one is lied to, the user has a miniscule panic attack.

Can’t distinguish truth as if by mind-reading, but no panic attack will occur when people/texts are honest.

Appliance

Usages

  • Detecting a present target's vocally emanated lies.

Methods

Mentality-based

Limits

  • May not differentiate lies if subject/targets have no pulse difference.
  • Pace makers just beat at one pace so it does not register on a polygraph
  • Sociopaths feel no remorse or any emotions that would give them away on a polygraph
  • Someone with multiple personalities could unintentionally pass a test like this. in fact one of the other personallities could have no knowledge on what the other personalities do or have done.
  • Power can be subconciously blocked when around someone the person trusts. Say a best friend or a family member.

Personality

Users not controlled of this ability may become sceptic of other's trust when expecting the immediate truth.
