  • Blindsight
rdfs:comment
  • The power to interact with one's environment without the aid of vision.
  • "Blindsight" was a general term for the natural ability of certain creatures to perceive their surroundings as well as a sighted creature yet without using visual senses. Senses that could contribute to a creature's overall blindsight included enhanced hearing, an acute sense of smell, sensitivity to vibrations, or such specialized senses as echolocation. Because the sense of sight was not involved, a creature with blindsight was not hindered by such spell effects as invisibility or darkness.
  • The target can see invisible creatures (as the see invisibility spell) and suffers no penalties for fighting or acting in total darkness.
  • Dr. Laurie Montgomery is a forensic doctor who is assigned a series of strange overdoses following a pattern: all of them have died of cocaine overdose, are wealthy people and none of them is known as a drug addict. Parallel to that, he meets Detective Lou Soldano, who is investigating some killings done by the Mafia.
  • Blindsight is the extraordinary ability to use a non-visual sense (or a combination of such senses) to operate effectively without vision. Such sense may include sensitivity to vibrations, acute scent, keen hearing, or echolocation. This ability makes invisibility and concealment (even magical darkness) irrelevant to the creature (though it still can’t see Ethereal creatures and must have line of effect to a creature or object to discern that creature or object). Blindsight never allows a creature to distinguish color or visual contrast. A creature cannot read with blindsight. Blindsight works underwater but not in a vacuum, even if the creature utilizing blindsight is native to a vacuum space.

Blindsight never allows a creature to distinguish color or visual contrast. A creature cannot read with blindsight. Blindsight works underwater but not in a vacuum, even if the creature utilizing blindsight is native to a vacuum space. Blindsight is closely related to the ability of Blindsense.

Parallel to that, he meets Detective Lou Soldano, who is investigating some killings done by the Mafia. Dr. Laurie takes the overdoses personally; his brother also died in a drug overdose. She thinks she commits herself to the job of discovering the anomaly in the deaths just because of that. She also notices that the deaths were murders and not self overdoses. She suspects there is some lethal compound on the bodies but the laboratory does not find any.
