The mage gains Mage Sight[1]. He senses when others nearby use exceptional mental powers, such as telepathy, psychometry or ESP, reading the telltale ripples left by the movements of exceptionally advanced thought.
The mage can also read resonance, discerning the emotional and psychic qualities of it: the particular nuances of will, conscious or otherwise that went into creating it. He can feel the mental processes that went into creating the resonance (such as strong emotional states or a powerful exercise of will), effectively detecting its context within reality, the “why” behind the resonance.
See Resonance[2], for rules on scrutinizing magic with this spell.
Guardians of the Veil Rote: Scales of Thought
Perhaps one of the most useful senses for resonance available to the Guardians,
this rote enables such willworkers to dissect thought processes and background
reasons, thus bringing them closer to their quarry.
Free Council Rote: Mind Dive
Free Council mages use this rote to delve into the echoes of consciousness to better understand the underlying factors behind the changing face of magic.
Theosophy Rote: Ajina[3]
The mage meditates for a time, closing his eyes and focuses his being on the center of his forehead. Suddenly, his third eye opens, like a flower unfolding its petals.
