Once Jakob Bosch points to a target and activates "Claws of the Fallen", a strange, fleshy-amalgam of hands, eyes, and nails begins to grow and fester on the target's body in a random location. As the 'infection' grows, it begins to claw and grip the target, seemingly feasting on their flesh and adding their mass into it's own.
Straight out of a Bosch painting, Jakob believes it to be the 'souls' of those who died on the operating table. Whether that's the truth of the ability or not, it's truly anyone guess. After viewing the 'Bobasaurus', it opened up Jakob's mind to exactly how disgusting and warped living mass can truly be.

The Psych-Scope is a single canister gas mask with thick glass goggles. You don the mask, securing the straps to the back of your head. Pressing a small switch patched into the right side of the mask activates its paranormal scopes, tinting the glass lenses into a shade of blue when detecting physiological data and red when determining dream data. Data is provided to the user through a HUD. Upon activation the user feels a rush of paranoia as the visualization of the target's affliction and nightmare data sends a shock to the nervous system. While the scope appears as little more than an odd choice of attire, its activation is obvious to onlookers as the lenses begin to emit colored light.
To fix a problem, you've got to find it first, and seeing is believing. The idea of the Psych-Scope came to Dr. Maddox in a dream, but it's design..that came from something otherworldly. The Psych-Scope's lenses are able to compose visual representations of conditions and traumas that a person is being affected by. The realistic manifestations found only within the target's mind, often deep within their subconscious can be unsettling. While active, it is hard to determine real from imaginary as the scope convinces your mind that the manifestations are tangible and not all dreams can be easily envisioned by an outside mind.
