Perception measures a character's ability to observe his environment. This may involve a conscious effort, such as searching an area, but it is more often intuitive, as the character's keen senses notice something out of the ordinary. Perception is a sensitivity to the character's surroundings, and is seldom present in the cynical or jaded (who have seen it all before). Perception is used to determine whether or not a character understands a given situation or detects an environmental stimulus. It can warn a character of ambushes, help a character identify a metaphor, distinguish a clue from a pile of refuse, or uncover any other hidden or overlookable detail, whether physical or otherwise.
• Poor: Perhaps you are absurdly self-absorbed, perhaps merely an airhead; in any event, even the most obvious details elude you. •• Average: You are oblivious to the very subtle, but aware of the bigger picture. ••• Good: You perceive moods, textures, and minuscule changes in your environment •••• Exceptional: Almost nothing evades your notice. ••••• Outstanding: You instantly observe things almost imperceptible to human senses.
