With a touch, you can read the psychic impressions left on objects by their previous owners, granting you the following benefits:
- Increase your Wisdom score by 1, to a maximum of 20.
- You move at half your travel speed or slower while looking for psychometric resonance. You must brush your bare hands over any objects you pass while you do this. This detects objects with significant emotional resonance attached to them, such as the joy from a child's beloved teddy bear, the sorrow from a widower's wedding ring, or the fear from a victim's murder weapon. If you're looking for a particular type of emotional resonance, you can choose to ignore other emotions.
- If you find an item with that resonance, you can explore that resonance with the following action.
- Psychometric Assessment - Your bare hands are touching an object in which you detected psychometric resonance; Effect You spend 1 minute concentrating on the object to get a vision of the face of the person who imbued the item with such emotion in the first place. If the associated emotion is particularly negative, you might take 1d6 psychic damage, as determined by the DM. Pressing in to assess the resonance alters a creature's emotions. Creatures with special training or that have mechanical or artificial intelligence are immune to emotional effects.
Inspired by the Read Psychometric Resonance feat from Pathfinder 2e.
