You possess supernaturally heightened senses.
Used by Isaac McKnight, Created by Omnitox.

When in the dark, Issacs eyes see right through the black voids, seeing things for what they really are without the need for petty light. His eyes are slightly darker coloured now, the sclera now a mid grey instead of white.

After his last contract, he took a long drive and ended up at the corpse of Macula the Fearful. Staring into his empty eyes for so long, his own eyes changed once again.
