Description

 * The adept has trained to be more aware of his surroundings, noticing things that he might otherwise miss. When trying to spot someone or something—including hidden vaults, secret doors, or disguised or concealed characters—the adept makes an Awareness test instead of a Perception test. If successful, he notices the target of his search if it is within short range of Visibility (see the Gamemaster’s Guide).
 * With three or more successes, he notices the target within medium range of Visibility. If the adept possess the Disarm Trap talent or skill, he may use this to find traps and wards.
