Retrocognition (Espionage<\/i>)<\/h2>\n

You know the scenes in all those serial killer books, shows and movies where the brilliant detective recreates the crime scene just by looking at it and being spooky?\u00a0 The mystic answer to this is retrocognition, which does for \u201ctimes gone by\u201d what clairvoyance does for \u201cplaces far away.\u201d You can apply it to an object, a location or even a person and get visions of their history.<\/p>\n

These \u2018visions\u2019 aren\u2019t like actual psychedelic out-of-body experiences.\u00a0 They\u2019re more like memories of things you never saw.\u00a0 So if I use Retrocognition to look at 8:30 to 12:45 the previous night in room 221 of the Bide-A-Wee Motel, I don\u2019t have to sit through the whole thing like it\u2019s the movie Gettysburg<\/i>.\u00a0 I know what happened as if I\u2019d been there paying attention the whole time, but accessing the information doesn\u2019t take a ton of time.<\/p>\n

You an absorb one hour of experience for every point of Height in your PATIENT\u00a0Espionage<\/em> roll.<\/b><\/p>\n

What you get to see depends on how far back you can look, and that, in turn, depends your Espionage <\/i>rating.\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n
