There was definitely no coordination on our part regarding seeing through mists. I don't actually have access to it. Waves spirit grants it but the Deep Shaman Archetype trades it out.
I would like to be one of the colonists rescued from the Faceless Stalkers. Athan has been constantly used by others throughout his life and has become mistrustful of others. He also has a low opinion of himself and while he's searching for a way to make himself useful and fit in he's not sure what he could contribute. I think the group of heroes that rescued him are people he would not only be more likely to trust but in them he would see an opportunity to use his "freakish abilities" to help the colony and earn his place.
