Emoticons are great, I think.
I as a GM love to be vague and mysterious and all that too, but as a player it's annyoing.

Astral Sight:
You see the astral plane, and some evidence of taint there, although the area would still be considered "open"

For Astral sight ,a 6 is required to see the astral plane. Anything else, you need t obeat spell defense.
Morgana NEEDS to get a skill in oration or something.

Astral Sight of a windling seems to be working a little different, at least that's how I run it: you need a success grade lower then with other methods. So if you need a 10 to beat the SD of someone, a windling would need only a 7 (iirc, don't have the chart handy).
Anyway, to get an impression what's up with the Elder a 7 should be enough
And yes, Morgana should get Rhetoric or some such.

Well, I only have the EPC here (but at least as a PDF, sweet copy'n'paste).
Astral-Sensitive Sight
The character can sense astral imprints and patterns. Astral-Sensitive Sight is magical perception, translating sensory information into visual cues. The character does not actually use his eyes for Astral-Sensitive Sight; a physically blind character
could still “see” astrally. Astral-Sensitive Sight has a range of 10 yards.
To perceive astral imprints, the character makes a Perception (6) Test. If the test succeeds, the character senses the imprints of every object within his field of vision. The imprint of an object provides only the most basic information — an object’s size, shape, and location, and whether or not the item is magically active (all
living things and magic items are magically active).
In order to learn more information, the character must focus on a specific imprint and make another Perception Test. If the result of this test exceeds the target’s Spell Defense, the character senses the target’s pattern.
A character using Astral-Sensitive Sight can learn if a given item is magical, but a character using this ability cannot gain any information about the item’s history or learn any of the item’s Key Knowledges (see the Thread Magic chapter, p. 265, for more
information on Key Knowledges and magic items).
Page 258: The precision and clarity of Astral-Sensitive Sight offers ample compensation for its limited range and power. Other astral sensing abilities may enable an adept to detect and observe subjects with higher Spell Defense ratings, but Astral-Sensitive Sight is more sensitive and will usually reveal more details of a subject’s pattern. For example, details that would normally be visible on an Excellent result may be visible to Astral-Sensitive sight on an Average result. The gamemaster determines the specific benefits of Astral-Sensitive Sight, based on the needs of his game.

The character "sees" the astral imprint of every object within his range of vision,to a range of 10 yards, with a Spell defense less than or equal to the Perception Test result. |

Ok, it states "may be". So it's based on your gamemaster's handwaving.

It's from RedBrick Earthdawn Players Compendium, page 258. I don't have one of the 1st editons main ruelbooks here, so I can't give you a page reference atm. But I'll see what I can get later today.
It's not that important atm, I just want that we get a common ground about windling's astral sight.

We shouldn't think about it now, agreed.
But it's a question that brought up in our campaign regularly, after the windling-player found out, that female windlings are so damn rare.
