** As a note, postcognition and precognition are powers which are time-specific (seeing the past and future respectively) but leave the question of range open. "Clarvoyance" implies seeing at a distance but leaves the question of time open. A postcog, for example, most usually sees events that happened earlier in their current location or to a particular object, but a clairvoyant postcog could also have visions about past events in other locations.--[[User:Hardvice|Hardvice]] <small>[[User talk:Hardvice|(talk)]]</small> 14:46, 15 May 2007 (EDT) |

Name
I would prefer to rename this Clairvoyance, but will await further discussion. --Ted C 10:58, 15 May 2007 (EDT)
- Clairvoyance is a better term, but doesnt that imply visions that happen in the past? Like Sanjog Iyler? If not, then yeah my vote goes with Clairvoyance --Piemanmoo 11:02, 15 May 2007 (EDT)
- Clairvoyance is generally regarded as the ability to see things happening far away. Merriam-Webster defines it as "1- the power or faculty of discerning objects not present to the senses, 2- ability to perceive matters beyond the range of ordinary perception." Molly could apparently see brief glimpses of Matt that told her where he was. --Ted C 11:06, 15 May 2007 (EDT)
- My understanding of clairvoyance (or "clear seeing") is that it includes knowledge beyond just knowing someone's location. However, when it comes to the powers, I tend to defer to Ted. Clairvoyance is not my favorite name, but it's not a bad description. — RyanGibsonStewart (talk) 11:08, 15 May 2007 (EDT)
