This power functions as Aura Perception. By watching a person or object, you can detect the swirling miasma of psychic influences and energies that swirl around everything. Focusing this sight on a particular person or object allows you to gain significant information about it. You must be able to see your target to use Aura Perception. After spending a turn and making a Static Mental Challenge with a difficulty of 10 traits for creatures and 15 traits for objects, you may ask a question.

If targeting a person, you may ask the target's current emotional/mental state, whether he is under the effect of any type of magic, whether he has committed diablerie, or what manner of creature (Vampire, Garou, Mortal, etc.) he is.

If targeting an object, you may ask a Narrator who last touched the object, whether it was used in an emotionally charged act (a murder, romance, maniacal rage), or what strong emotions drove an individual using the object. The wraith’s level of Way of the Scholar compares to an opponent’s level of Obfuscate or similar powers to determine if they can break an opponent’s Obfuscate.
