Psychometry is a mental mutation that allows useres to look into the past of artifacts to understand them and learn how to build them. Contrary to the description, it currently does not require the character to have the respective Tinker skill. Successfully identifying an artifact with psychometry costs 1000 energy. As a mental mutation, this is affected by Two-Headed. Using psychometry to learn recipes does not cost any energy.
