Predict Beasts is an authority-status sage ability in the study of Beasts grants a limited ability to predict a beast's attack and movement. This ability stems from a protective transmission of knowledge that lies beyond the character's conscious understanding. For a cleric, this can be interpreted as divine protection provided by their deity. For characters of other classes, believers or not, the ability manifests as an inherent benefit, ready to be used instinctively when needed.
When engaged in melee with a beast, the character gains an awareness of the animal's intentions. They can discern if the animal plans to attack them specifically, and if so, with what part of its body — be it fangs, tail, claw, or another form of attack. If the beast does not intend to target the character, they will know this as well. Additionally, the character can predict if the beast intends to retreat, reposition, or employ a special ability, such as a breath weapon, during the next round. This foreknowledge allows the character to act accordingly — whether to give warning, evade, attack, or choose another course of action.
The ability provides complete insight into the beast's next round of actions but only in relation to the character. The character may also sense that the beast intends to attack another, though they will not know who the target will be. This limitation ensures the ability remains focused on the character's immediate interactions with the creature.
