Social structures include dependencies and hierarchies; you can tell who commands who and detect the members of rigid social hierarchies, such as most military and some highly organized syndicates, criminal or otherwise. | You can use this to detect and understand both physical and social structures.

Analyze Order
Basic Action
You can sense the presence of order and structure at a distance. Concentrate on a particular type of structure or ordered system, make a skill roll and multiply the result by 10; this is the range in meters. If the system detected is in range of your physical senses, you also gain a basic understanding of it and how it works.

Discern Location
Limit Break
You learn the exact physical location of an object or creature. You must have enough information about the target to describe it uniquely; this can be a full individual name, number, or a detailed physical description. The result is revealed in whatever system of reference you understand and which is most relevant and practical. You can use this to discern your own location if you are lost.
Spatial Sense
Stance
You can sense the basic shape of things within Mind meters. In this area you can sense things even around corners or behind cover, incorporating them in your mental world-image. Because mobile objects are somewhat fuzzy, it is still possible to sneak on you, but normal sensory hindrances do not help. You still cannot see - colors, script, screen images, and other stimuli based on structure rather than form are imperceptible to this power.
