Description

A cold hand touched the spine of Solomon Kane. Whether the sounds registered on his conscious ear or on some un-sounded deep of soul or sub-feeling, he could not tell, but he knew that somewhere within his consciousness there reechoed the tramp of monstrous feet from within that ghastly mausoleum.

After acquiring the Staff of Solomon from his blood-brother N’Longa, Kane develops the ability to sense when supernatural forces are at work nearby. When any effect with the supernatural descriptor is nearby, the gamemaster secretly rolls to determine if Kane’s awareness is sensitive to it. On an 11 or higher, Kane is entitled to a Perception check to notice it. Kane’s awareness functions in all directions and penetrates all barriers (although effects like Concealment can counter it normally).

Note: Kane possesses this ability as a result of his connection to the Staff of Solomon, however it need not be on his person for him to use it.
