Clairvoyance is the power to acquire information using sight outside the normal range of detection.
It's a sub-power of Claircognizance and a variation of Extrasensory Perception, not to be confused with Remote Viewing or Precognition.
Users can acquire information using sight outside the normal range of detection about an object, person, location, or physical event.
This also means that they can receive optical/visual sensations.
Additionally, they can perceive sights and visual sensations from other dimensions and from past events, future events, or locations that are currently outside the range of normal human senses or vision.

Users would be able to detect beings/entities normally completely undetectable, like spiritual and psychic beings.
