Psychometry is a Psychic Power whereby a character receives visions upon physical contact, sometimes involuntarily. The most common form is when the person touches an object and receives information about things or people the object has associated with and/or the environment around the object. It can also manifest as touching a person and getting visions or knowledge of their history, memories, or character. Sister Trope to Touch Telepathy (active mental communication through touch), often overlaps with it. Compare Dreaming of Times Gone By, which can convey similar information but is done through dreams rather than a psychic event. Not to be confused with psychometrics, which is the real life branch of psychology concerned with measuring mental abilities, or with psychrometry, which is the real life study of vapors. |

In Unbreakable, the hero has the ability to read evil intentions and/or actions in a person via physical contact, which he always thought was simply normal intuition and never really followed up on it. Elijah eventually confirms that his intuition was extremely accurate, to the point of describing the look and design of a concealed gun. | |

The Pretender: Angelo was one of Dr. Raines' early attempts at creating a Pretender but the treatments destroyed his mind. Instead of the usual Pretender abilities, it gave him the ability to pick up an object and know what the object's owner is doing right now.note In a case of New Powers as the Plot Demands, the first season had Angelo using a variant of the Pretender ability that allows him to study a specific person's possessions, assume their personality, and instinctively predict their present and future actions. On his first appearance, it takes most of an episode of study before he's ready to start predicting. By the end of the series, this has developed into full-blown psychometry. | |

X-Men: Longshot has this as a secondary, rarely seen power. At one point during his stint in Exiles, he tries using it on an alternate version of Galactus. The psychic backlash throws him across the room. Nathaniel Carver, a.k.a. Hindsight, has this as his mutant power. He often activates it by accident when he touches someone. |

The Desert Storm: Quinlan Vos, a young Jedi Padawan and one of young Obi-Wan Kenobi's friends, has this particular Force talent. This can be something of a mixed blessing, because it's not something he can turn off and sometimes leads him to learn things he would have been happier not knowing. Such as when he tries it on a spare lightsaber belonging to Ben Naasade, a talented but enigmatic Jedi Master with a mysterious but extremely troubled past... He doesn't take it well. | |

Rachel from Rachel Rising develops this among several other magical talents. The most memorable example by far is when she touches the knife that the Fallen Angel Malus had given to Zoe. It shows the history of the knife from when it was Satan's sword that broke during his fall from grace, and how it has been wielded and reshaped by people throughout the ages. (In other words, used for things like Human Sacrifice, conquest, and murder by cultists, warlords, and serial killers.) | |

Patternist: Some of the titular psychics can imbue memories into objects for other Patternists to "read" later. By Patternmaster, this is one of their means of keeping historic records. One Patternist in Mind of My Mind has an exceptionally strong talent for Psychometry and can "seal" the psychic impressions in an object so they aren't muddled by later use. She collects items with especially rare or interesting impressions; her pride and joy is a 6000-year-old clay bowl that carries clear memories of an ancient Nubian woman. |

Fate Revelation Online: Kirito and Argo discover that at higher levels [Structural Grasp] (which is normally treated as a weak appraise spell that is quickly passed over and ignored) will give information on the history of the object. This isn't randomly generated fluff, either—it is perfectly accurate information on everything that has ever happened to this specific object. That would require an exponential amount of data storage that constantly increases, orders of magnitude more than the rest of the game combined. That would be crazy enough on its own, and then there's the fact that only three people in the game can actually access this information. The truth, of course, is that magic is real and they are unknowingly casting a real spell to read the game object's history. When Argo pushes hard enough, she overhears a couple programmers talking when the object was first coded, which understandably freaks her out. | |

Quantum Leap: Police Psychic Tamlyn Matsuda has this ability in the episode "Temptation Eyes." While she's able to consciously and unconsciously catch vibes about things through the air, Tamlyn's psychic abilities are boosted tremendously when she makes physical contact with a person or an object. This is how she's able to start seeing Sam as Sam, and how she learns the identity of Chinatown Strangler. She also has a vision of a woman's murder by holding a pillow that belonged to the woman. | |

Pam Asbury in Rose Red has this power. What makes her version particularly interesting (and chilling) is that while handling or touching objects lets her pick up emotions and even hear things which were said by the people who interacted with them, she is also shown to sometimes subtly channel the person in question — when she touches the front door of the mansion and picks up the interaction between Bollinger and the ghost of Sukeena, she actually adopts Sukeena's diction and accent when speaking her words. The experience is also shown to be rather upsetting, since she ends up shedding tears during it, and afterward said she didn't like how it made her feel. | |

Cardinal King: Mamoru has his psychometry powers like in the manga, though the fic makes it much more apparent that he has these powers during the Dark Kingdom arc (the manga wasn't clear in this respect until the next one). It'd be really hard to Gender Flip the first arc of the series otherwise if he didn't; he was infamously useless in the anime due to having no innate powers unlike the Sailor Guardians. | |

Mass Effect 3 reveals that the Protheans have the ability to read the memory of things and living beings simply by touching them. Javik the last Prothean uses it to determine that the room he occupies on the Normandy was previously inhabited by a genetically engineered perfect krogan soldier. It is also implied that the asari's Touch Telepathy is a weaker variation of the same ability that the Protheans genetically engineered them to have, along with universal biotics. | |

The Disastrous Life of Saiki K.: Psychometry is one of the titular Saiki Kusuo's many powers. Because he cannot turn this power off he constantly wears transparent gloves that he only takes off when he needs to use his psychometry. Accidently touching a book with his unprotected hands risks giving him spoilers. In one chapter he accidently touches a book through a tear in his gloves and gets flashes of the life of somebody who previously checked out the book, which he ends up finding a lot more exciting than the book, since he only reads unpopular books because his uncontrolled mind reading powers also give him spoilers, and so he keeps touching the books in that series to try to learn more about what happened to them. | |

After giving a demonstration of her powers, Yakumo has the idea to have her use said power on the fragments of the Sacred Demon Stone in which the Big Bad was sealed to learn of a way to turn himself and Pai into humans from Kaiyanwang's memories. Unfortunately, Kaiyanwang left a trap which sends Parvati into a Lotus-Eater Machine dream world. | |

He's largely unable to control this, leading to everything from unwanted press attention and losing a job he loves, to having to experience the rape and murder of a nine-year-old girl from the killer's point of view. Eventually, his visions about Greg Stillson motivate him to try to assassinate Stillson before he can set off World War III. | |

In Dark Disciple, Quinlan Vos is a Kiffar Jedi Master with the ability to use Force psychometry in order to collect information on other beings via their clothing or other objects. It is considered a dangerous ability and use of it is discouraged by the Council, since its use on things like victims of violent deaths may cause the unprepared Jedi to experience powerful dark impulses. While Jedi very rarely have this power, about 1% of Kiffar naturally have it regardless of their Force sensitivity. | |

This is one of Eric Draven's powers upon coming back from the dead in The Crow. He has the ability to pick up on memories related to his past by touching things related to said past — including ones that didn't originate with him, as seen with the scene with Gideon when he sees Shelly's final moments through the cop's eyes. He eventually develops the ability to transfer memories and the pain that comes with them by touch, which he uses to completely wreck Top Dollar in the final battle. | |

"Force echoes", the Jedi ability to pick up echoes of an object's past. While some Jedi can pick up memories if they have a strong connection to the person who left them, (like Ezra Bridger sensing his parents' memories from their radio tech in Star Wars Rebels or Ahsoka sensing Sabine's past from a key she picked up in Ahsoka), being able to do it with any object is a much rarer gift and can't be taught. Cal in the Jedi: Fallen Order series (as seen below) and Jedi Master Quinlan Vos are the two most notable ones. | |

If Pakunoda from Hunter × Hunter wants to know something about a person and get info from them, all she has to do is get in physical contact with him/her and activate her powers via a question. The only foolproof way to counter her skills is simply not knowing what she's talking about, as she's so good at it that she can even pick up subconscious thoughts and know when they're trying to lie to her. | |

The Dead Zone: When Johnny Smith touches the cigarette butts left behind by a serial killer, he begins to show the killer's mannerisms and speak in his voice. When he visits a site the killer stood waiting for a victim, he begins to see things from the killer's point of view, feeling his need to kill, and this continues right up through experiencing a rape and murder from the killer's point of view, leaving Johnny sobbing and crying that he's sorry, that he now knows what it's like to kill. | |

In the Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers series, the player character possesses a power called the "Dimensional Scream" that enables him or her to see visions of the past or future by touching objects, but it isn't something he/she has control over. | |

Kaos from Battle Angel Alita perceives the world mostly this way (for some reason, his ordinary senses are scrambled).

In Blood and Revolution, the human form of the earth god has psychometric powers. There aren't many demonstrations since he avoids touching people and things because of it, but once he touches the living chain weapon Shun, he has visions of Shun's 600 years of life and the wars he's been used in. | |

Sailor Moon: Mamoru has this as a power in the manga and Crystal, along with Healing Hands and an apparent Psychic Link with his soulmate Usagi. He does gain an actual attack in the Black Moon arc. His psychometry becomes more obvious starting in the BM arc; it was very subtle beforehand. He's also capable of transferring energy to other people. The removal of all his powers in the '90s anime led to an Adaptation Induced Plothole in the third season. | |
