In that case, how do I add Familiarity penalties to abilities that have unlimited range in RAW? I think that's just Detect, and the Empathy-type advantages. (and those that don't have rolls anyway)
Edit: It looks like unmodified Empathy is limited to direct presence, per Powers p. 48. Remote should let it link with/follow-up on Mind Reading or Detect Clairsentience, I think.

And with the additional -50% limitation you mentioned, "familiarity penalties apply at close range": Would that limitation allow me to put Increased Range (Familiarity) on Detect?

-5 seems fair, then for "a place you last visited >100 years ago that's aspected towards your gody domain".

I think Clairsentience won't be part of the power since it operates so differently from the power's other abilities, but everything else about how it works will stay the same as above so it still needs the range mods.
