Vision

Revision as of 20:08, 7 August 2018 by Thaisen (talk | contribs)

Vision is a selection of abilities all related to your perception of the world around you. A human, dwarf, Tsol'aa, etc all naturally have certain methods of perception and Vision seeks to primarily increase your visual acuity. Starting off with simple tricks of observation, Vision will eventually give you the power of far-seeing, as well as the power to examine your subconscious and profit thereby.

The Vision skill is a general skill and available to all classes.
