THANATIC EMPATHY

Chris now has an intrinsic awareness of death and the dying. Though his powers end with mammals, he cannot stop himself from knowing that something nearby is shuffling off the mortal coil. As a corollary, he can sense places where a traumatic death has occurred. This makes living in New England, noted ghost story capital of the US, quite fraught.
