Through an act of concentration, they can push through the veil of reality to see the other side. This costs one action in Fight but otherwise can be done at will. The Second Sight grants the ability to discern if something is magical or not. Test Perception (see table). If successful, the character knows the item, person or effect is magical. They doesn't know exactly what the magic does. Second Sight is one of the abilities that allows a character to use the Aura Reading skill. See the Aura Reading skill in this book for obstacles. Second Sight allows the mage to FoRK Aura Reading into Sorcery or Summoning (so long as they are using his sight). Second Sight turns Perception into Observation for detecting Stealthy or Inconspicuous characters. Any physical actions taken (running, jumping, fighting, etc.) while using Second Sight suffer a +1 Ob penalty.
