Farsight deals with your ability to use the seeing stones, to channel the power of the god of the stars through the seeing stone. The command associated with this skill is FAR and you will need to be in the presence of a seeing stone to employ its vast array of far-reaching powers.Farsight, of all Avalon skills, is intended for remote, safeguarded action and boasts the greatest number of individual abilities attached to the mastery of the skill. These abilities, growing in power, can be channelled through the seeing stone; nullifications, telekenises, spying from some distant sanctuary,the
list is long.
The seeing stones can be used to break wills, force actions, command sentients, and higher levels of Farsight enter a realm of remote combats for dominance of the spheres of stone influence, the fate of entire cities resting in the lap of this mighty skill.
