Premonition?

[Guyon]

I wanted a friendly NPC to get premonitions from time to time, that may help the team. I don't want to use danger sense, as this will most likely be out of combat. They will get hunches and glimpse near future occurrences. I want them to be vague and in rare cases dreams.

Any Suggestions?

Thanks, That is exactly what I was looking for. though it would have been interesting if you answer the question before I asked it.

Plot Device: O pts. Assigned to NPC, and will not directly affect a PC (ie attack, etc.), no need to write up/stat out.

Try the disadvantage 'Weirdness Magnet'.

Sorry. That wasn't actually meant for this post: you haven't asked the question it refers to yet

If he can only sense the future and not the present, you can also include Precog Only (-1/2)

When I am really making it just GM candy so that I can give a character premonition when and how I want, I tend to forget the Advantages and extra senses. So I would just make it:

Claisentience: (~Sight Group);

+Precognitive

[40 Active]

No Conscious Control (-2);
Vague and Unclear (-1/2);
Precognition Only (-1/2);

I just had a wacked out thought....

Actually, the more I think of it, if this is just a plot device kind of thing I'd just write it off as part of the character's concept. If this was the only power the character had however, I might write up the above just to justify it happening to the character (and giving a game mechanic that can be intereacted with).

Good idea. I'd rep you if I could.

Dust Raven!

Excellent idea! I want to give reputation, but I'm still waiting to give reputation for the Turning To Stone thread.

Cheers!

Given that the only real point to premonitions would be to give the character information that the group would not normally get in any other way, I would say it should be bought as a Power unless you're going to make sure that every other player in the group also gets some kind of free ability to make things balance things out. I say this because I certainly know players who would complain about the imbalance of giving one player a free ability.

I'd use the Clairsentience method, incidentally.

Information that pertains or is related to situation but is not detailed or conclusive. Do you think the two are mutually exclusive?
