Recognition of Signs I (sage ability)

Permits the character to recognize and identify the motifs displayed on shields, flags and elsewhere relating to monarchs, emperors or regional authorities of very high level (kingdoms within empires). This same ability extends to great religious leaders, patriarchs and archbishops, as well as great heroes identified at present by the book, Deities & Demigods.

The character would be able to locate any such person's entourage or location moving with a host of soldiers or camped on the field from flags and other signifiers on display, or from the colors chosen for the individual's tent. The mark of any such individual on a document could be distinguished, as well as a seal or the stamp on a coin would be known. The ability includes all such individuals within the character's chosen culture of knowledge.
