With objects, they gain knowledge including the makers, users, and even those who have on passing used the object, and what has been done with it. With living beings or parts of the body, the user learns their general life-history but doesn't gain anything of what they were thinking or feeling.
	+ **Earth Magic** - Fae can control the earth levitating rocks and making them deadly and extremely sharp. Fae can open fissures in the earth that can swallow up creatures and trap them in the ground. He can cause earth tremors so powerful; they can shatter the pillars of a mountain fortress.

	+ **Animal Transformation** - Fae can transform into an owl.
	+ **Zoolingualism** - Like the members of her family, Fae can speak to animals.
	+ **Mediumship** - Fae since she was a child could see, communicate and interact with spirts and the unseen by non-magical individuals even if they have possessed inanimate objects or people. They are able to repel and run spirits away from an area, compel to employ an armada of ghosts, and may even view a visual conception of a spirit world in a trance if desired. This is a unique trait common in only a few families.
