Empathy was the supernatural ability to sense the emotions of other beings. With this, empaths could gain information about the people they "read", by detecting current emotions, thoughts, emotional stages, goals, significant past loves and even the presence of soul.
Unlike telepathy, the ability to sense the thoughts of others, vampires were not immune to be "read" by empaths.
