Empaths

Empaths are a mysterious group of people who supposedly have a heightened ability to sense the emotional state of people around them. With this natural ability combined with extensive training, they are able to serve as extremely effective lie detectors. It's unknown how their power works.
There is only one confirmed empath in the game, known as Raven. She is met during the Reconciliation branch of the Free Worlds campaign when she questions Sawyer, the Syndicate defector. She is a Questioner who works for Navy Intelligence.
