Also Called

Clairsentience
Psychometrics

Capabilities

The user obtains historical memories or sensations concerning beings and objects they can observe by their senses. With objects they gain the knowledge including the makers, users, and even those who have on passing used the object, and what has been done with it. With living beings or parts of the body the user learns their general life-history, but doesn't gain anything of what they were thinking or feeling.

Techniques

Ability Learning: to learn skills and abilities from objects or people either temporarily or permanently.
Enhanced Marksmanship: to learn skills in using guns, bows or long-ranged weapons by gathering previous information and allowing them to aim accurately.
Knowledge Replication: to replicate the learned knowledge and skills of others.
Medical Detail: to learn a person's health. This is critical form because a serious health problem, that could be fatal, could go undetected.
Photographic Deduction: to figure out connections in whatever the user is investigating and process them extraordinarily fast.
Psychic Imprint: to voluntarily leave an imprint.
Retrocognition: to discern events of the targets past.
Tactile Telepathy: to read the thoughts, emotions and memories of others by touching them.
Weapon Proficiency: to have full mastery and knowledge on any weapon in on hand or contact.

Variations

Biographic Aptitude (Existence Osmosis)

Learn and understand everything about a person by touching them without the need of special education or long-term relationship. The user’s power works as if they have been with their touched subject all their life. Doesn’t understand thoughts or minds.

Consumption Psychometry

Learn and understand the history of whatever user consumes.

Neuro-Residual Recollection (Psychic Navigation)

Learn and understand everything or the last moments of a dead person through touch. This allows the user to see the cause of death of the person they are touching and/or sometimes retrace the path they took. One may also retrace the residual path taken by a murderer if they were the cause of death of the person.

Sonic Psychometry
