Soul Flashbacks
A side effect of breathing the powered remains of souls for years, is that you are inhaling assorted memories. These will embed themselves in your body, and can be triggered years later, often in related circumstances. Like extreme Deja Vu’s. They might reveal relevant knowledge, but they take so much out of you, that you become immobilised for a round, while the memories “rush in”. After you see a flashback once, it will not return.
