{{Name}} is a [[Mutations#Mental Mutations|mental mutation]] that allows the player to "see" psychic creatures within a moderate radius, even if blocked by obstacles.


For a creature to be classified as a "psychic", they must have at least one mental mutation. Such creatures will be visible to the player in a circular area with a radius of 9, even if they wouldn't normally be visible due to [[Properties#Occluding|occluding]] objects or a lack of light. Initially, the creature will be shown as a {{qud char|&B|?}} until they have been "identified"; identification has to a chance to occur every turn for any creatures within range of Sense Psychic, with creatures who are closer to the player having a higher chance of being identified. Once successfully identified, the player will be able to see the general shape of the creature but won't be able to {{qud text|&Wl&yook}} at them to determine to their name and description. Any identified creatures will remain as such until they exit Sense Psychic's range, and will have to be re-identified if they come within range once more.
