Power Of The Day -- Mind

MIND Phase 6

Sees Other Players' Cards

You have the power of knowledge. Before cards are played face down in
any challenge, you may look at the entire hand of one of the main
players. If you are one of the main players, you may look at your
opponent's hand.

HISTORY: Springing forth on a triple star system subject to constant
energy fluxes, the Mind thrives on shifting wave pulses, ultraviolet
rays, and gamma-release explosions. Extreme sensitivity to
potentialities has enabled it to view with wisdom (and some
skepticism) the threats of Cosmic competitors.

FLARE

Infinity
Wild: You may look at all the cards in the Challenge Deck without
changing their order.

Infinity
Super: You may ask any player what card he will play next. He must
keep his word if possible, and he cannot deliberately answer with a
card that would not be eligible. For instance, if this Flare is
played as another player is about to choose a Challenge Card, he
cannot answer that he will play the Macron Flare, which is played only
when placing tokens in the cone.

PULSAR

Phase 6
Con: Mind can only see your hand when you're both main players.

Phase 6
Pro: You may look at the hands of both main players.

Eon/Avalon:

No Changes

Flare

Super: You may look at the hands of both main players.

Pulsar

Pro: You may look at any player's hand at any time.

Experience Rating: Novice

Cosmic Monopoly

Before you draw a Chance or Community Chest card, you may look at the
top card. You may put it back and not draw a card.

Commentary: This is a resource power. Mind is a good power.
Knowledge of the cards in other players' hand is very helpful. To
ally you can judge the potential of a player winning or losing. As
main player, you get information on par with Oracle.
