The character channels his Essence into not his senses, granting him a cat's ability to see in darkness and an awareness of subtle changes in his visual environment. For the charm's duration, the character suffers no penalties from lack of lighting. Fog, snow, and the like may still obscure a character's vision, but a lack of light will not. In addition, the character can becomes preturnaturally aware of movement. If the character is stationary or moving at less than a quarter walking speed, add a number of automatic successes equal to the character's Martial Arts to any Perception (or other) test to visually detect creatures or objects in motion. If moving up to walking speed, the character may add Martial Arts dice to any Perception (or other) roll to visually detect creatures or objects in motion. Such bonus die are considered Martial Arts dice, so do not count against the pool limit for Perception + Awareness rolls. This charm provides no perception benefit to detect things that are not moving, nor if the character is moving faster than a walk.
