Description[]
This is the ability to perceive the state of being a fictional character.
Uses/Applications (Pros)[]
One with this ability can perceive the subjects responsible for writing or otherwise creating the story in progress, as well as those reading or watching said story, at will. In addition, one can perceive the genre of the story being told, and how to exploit tropes related to said genre, at will. Furthermore, one can perceive changes made to the story, even to oneself (ie plot holes, retcons, costume redesigns, etc), at will. One can also perceive how much time has passed in the "real world", and changes that have taken place therein, at will. One can even speed or dissociate perceptions, so interactions between oneself and the "real world" are not perceived by fellow characters, at will.
