Futureseeing
Semi-Rare
The ability to see glimpses into the future via prophecy, dream, or vision. Futureseers who have episodes often have a “fog” that covers their eyes; this fog can be bronze, silver, or gold in correlation to how powerful the user or episode is. Some visions are opened like memories, egged on by a keyword or phrase. The person delivering the prophecy cannot be a part of it. The closer the futureseer gets to a prophesied event, the more frequent, random, and vivid their visions are. Futureseeing, unlike other abilities, is rarely controllable, resulting in an ability that acts like a glitch.
