'Precognitives', also known as 'precogs', are capes with the ability to see or predict the future in some way. As no two powers are the same, barring special circumstances, no two precognitives operate in exactly the same way.
Examples
- Dinah Alcott
- Contessa
- Roulette
- Hunch
- Crystalclear
- The Simurgh (technically is unable to perceive "now" at all)
- Coil (Although he believes he is able to 'split the timeline', he actually merely predicts two versions of the future, and then follows whichever one he picks like an automaton)
- Eidolon (Depending on the powers he has at a given moment)
- WEDGDG PRT subdivision employed unspecified amount of precogs.
- Scion/Eden
Details
Despite differences mechanically precogs can be whittled down to ability to pull out information out of multiverse and analyze it with varying degrees of awareness and conditions. No "true", unassailable future-vision is available to the shards, but only limited-information simulations and predictions, although "limited" in this situation still includes unsurpassable amount of information.
Precognitives are an extremely valuable resource in any situation, and this means that other capes will frequently attempt to use them to gather information, as Coil did with Dinah.<ref name=22.4>“Get it, Regent?” I asked him, “The bank robbery was a distraction for the local capes, so Coil could be sure to get away with taking the kid.
