Infrared Perception and obstructions

[Lord Liaden]

Hello again. :)

Infrared scanners are often depicted as being able to pick up heat images through walls and other obstructions. Would Infrared Perception have some such capacity as a default, or would you have to build some type of N-Ray Perception with "infrared" as the SFX? Or would it be a matter of adjudicating the situation case-by-case?

Thanks again.

That's something you'd have to build with N-Ray Perception, unless you've got a particularly lenient GM. ;)
