The Psychic

Everyone has to wonder what other people are thinking. Everyone except you. All it takes is the barest impulse, and you can hear all of humanity, singing in your mind: shameful desires, little regrets, the secrets they whisper when they think no one is listening.

The problem is that when you discard secrecy, the comfortable lies go, too. You can always hear what they think of you, unfiltered by politeness, fear or compassion. The chorus of humanity sings in your mind. It will never be silent again.

Sincere, invasive, intimate and controlling. The Psychic has unmatched insight into other people’s secrets, and uses that insight to avoid the powerlessness of not understanding their peers. As a Skin, the Psychic explores issues of full disclosure, privacy, trust and gossip.

The Psychic is a Skin for Monsterhearts 2, from the All Too Human collection.
