Brain Scanning is the most basic power every supernatural has to help them identify other species by looking into their brain patterns.

Overview[]

With this power, they can see through someone else's forehead and catch a glance at their brain patterns. This power serves as a way of determining another individual's species identity, and many consider it rude (or to some, threatening) to conceal their patterns.

Brain patterns are not identical between different members of the same species, but can still be easily identified as they are nonetheless very similar.

According to Miranda Kane, witches, and warlocks have scroll-like markings, while humans mainly have dull even lines. Kylie Galen once commented that Holiday Brandon has horizontal lines on the left side.

Limitations[]

While they can recognize the brain patterns, some people give off a blockage that makes them difficult to read.

Chameleons are known to have a closed mind until they come of age when they start manifesting their powers.

Individuals with ghost whispering powers can also give off an unintentional mental blockage that requires meditation to open up.

Mental illnesses and brain tumors can do very strange things to one's brain pattern; apparently, they can even make one's pattern appear as if they were a different species than they actually are.
