You receive one kind of sensory input when a different sense is stimulated. In particular, you can either feel
light or feel sound. You can shift your stimulated sense between these two options once per round as a swift action. Your senses continue to work normally as well, unless they are impaired for some reason.
Your face must be uncovered to use this power, because it is the skin of your face that acts as the sensory receiver.
If you are feeling
light by absorbing ambient
light onto your skin, you have your normal visual abilities (except for
darkvision), even if your eyes are closed or you are blinded. If your eyes are working normally, you gain a +4 circumstance bonus on all
Spot and
Search checks. While feeling
light, you are immune to
gaze attacks.
If you are feeling sound by absorbing sound onto your skin and your ears are working normally, the expanded audio input provides you with a +4 circumstance bonus on
Listen checks.
Psionic or magical
displacement effects,
invisibility effects, illusions, and other similar effects confuse your
synesthete senses just as they would your normal senses.
You can also use this power to see sound if you are deafened, or hear
light if you are blinded, thus removing all penalties associated with either
condition (though you gain no bonuses for using the power in this way if you are not deafened or blinded).
