Psychometry is a power where a psychic is able to gather information from its surrounding environment. This information comes in the form of skills, memories or knowledge of past objects and people most often through touch. The power is very useful in the way it can be applied. It can be used to find out the weakness of an opponent or in some cases it can be used to "Learn" the skills needed to use an object i.e a psychometric character can learn the skills of a master swordsman just by touching the blade.
