', or the Seer, is one of ' currently featured in Identity V.

Overview
The Seer is a support character in Identity V. When the game begins, he has no decoding, kiting, or rescuing buffs and de-buffs. He can also see the Hunter and the Hunter's location for the first 5 seconds of the game. His owl patrols the map for the first 20-25 seconds and searches for teammates to mark their position, causing the owl to be unavailable for use.

The owl can block any one attack from the hunter, which is important for supporting kiting teammates or yourself. However, Hunters can also use attacks that do not have attack recovery time (ex. Bonbon's bombs, Violetta's web) to remove the owl before carrying out a normal attack. Every time the owl is hit, the Seer receives a 10% vaulting de-buff, which can stack up to 50%.

The owl can be charged up by looking at the Hunter and will not be charged while an owl is in use. The owl lasts for around 20 seconds before it gets tired and flies away to rest. The owl can be used to observe teammates, if the Seer sees the owl while observing the teammate, he can see the Hunter for 5 more seconds after exiting spectator mode.

Background
From an early age, Eli could see "visions" and interactions with these visions caused Eli to view the world with an all-new perspective. However, this ability didn't improve his finances and a promise he made to his fiancée forced him to accept the invitation from Oletus Manor. Will his marvelous ability help him overcome his financial difficulties?

Eli became blind “After revealing the future to them who shall not know it.” Due to his ability, him and his owl share a contact that allows him to see and know his surroundings.

However, his Diary Deduction is entirely different, due to being released after the intentional idea of a "Fortune Teller". This background, however, remained unchanged.

Tips

 * One owl can block any one attack for the Survivor it is protecting. This includes 0.5 damage attacks like Violetta's web attacks to attacks that have fast recharge time like Jack's fog blade and Joker's rocket dash to detention attacks.
 * Timing is one of the strategies. Have your eye on the Hunter. When the Hunter's attack animation begins, use your owl. Keeping your eye on the Hunter also charges up rage.
 * You do not accumulate rage when an owl is in use or when Tide Turner is active. When an owl is in use, transition to an area that is good for kiting.
 * Eli's Hidden Achievement "Change the Future" requires the player to deploy 2 owls that block a Hunter's attack within 1 second. This can be from blocking attacks that hit you or your teammates.
 * When the hunter is breaking pallet, swing camera to accumulate a little more rage.
 * You should hide in a safe space when viewing other teammates so the hunter doesn’t take you by surprise.
