The Sight and how it works

Sun 14 Dec 2025, 21:34

I’m trying to wrap my head around the Sight and it’s logistics in various conditions.
If a character who possesses the Sight were to interact with a Vaesen, verbally or physically, in the presence of characters or NPCs without the ability to see Vaesen what would those NPCs see exactly? Would they see only the Sighted character talking with or fighting nothing? Seemingly interacting with something imaginary? If the Vaesen managed to wound or even to physically pick up and throw their opponent across a room would our bystanders witness some bizarre, invisible physics or, as a result of the physical interaction, would the Vaesen become visible to all involved for the duration of the combat? When and under what conditions would a Vaesen become visible to those without the Sight?

This query never received any reply. Perhaps I am way off base but I am still curious about the Sight and how best to handle it in game. any reply would be greatly appreciated

Chapter 8 has some information about this. That is a GM chapter so I won't recite any of it in the general subforum but those without a sight would probably rationalize what they see. If they see a person with the sight talk with a vaesen, they most likely would see someone talking to themselves. Even if the actually saw something, they would probably start to question what they saw or rationalize it and explain in some other ways. Even if they believe what they saw, no one else would believe them and would treat them as crazy and they would probably, with time, start to question what they saw and rationalize it with a natural explanation.
