With this power, your mundane observation skills are unmatched, and you can compensate for nearly any lost sense with the ones that remain.

Cost: Free

System: Heightened Senses may be activated reflexively, even outside of your usual initiative order. A character’s heightened vision allows her to see clearly, even in total darkness. Your heightened hearing allows you to understand sounds too quiet for normal people to hear. You may eavesdrop on any conversation in your line of sight.  When physically blinded, your hearing can compensate adequately for the loss of vision. Similarly, if something deafens you, your sense of touch can feel the vibrations of sounds made. Unless otherwise stated, you are immune to the Blinded Condition when Heightened Senses is active. Certain powers may impose supernatural penalties to your senses. When trying to overcome this interference, Heightened Senses is critical. Those powers will dictate what contested pools are used to overcome the sensory deprivation.

To signify that you are using Heightened Senses without interrupting roleplay, point your index finger at the sensory body part you are enhancing such as your eye, ear, or nose.

Duration: Until deactivated
