Divination Expert

By magic, psionics, communing with spirits or otherwise, there are special people who have a sixth sense. These people sense things invisible to most others. You are a kind of diviner who makes a name for themselves doing things like tarot, palm-reading, and the like. Sometimes it is for profit, and other times you are a sibyl of the city perhaps, in a royal court. Your tongue can commune supposedly with forces beyond mortal understanding, reaching into the fate that entwines all planes of existence. You may be self-employed, traveling the lands and reading fortunes, setting up shop here and there. Perhaps you cater to a select powerful circle of those who use you to plan their next steps in the world. Armies are known to consult auguries to ensure their odds in battle. They come to people like you
