;Seeing: The ability to both see and hear anything near an open body of water. Supposedly, this body of water needs to be at least two inches deep. Regalia looks into a dish of water, and can see out of any surface of water that touches air.{{book ref|Firefight|9}} This can be prevented by placing suds of soap on the top of the water.{{book ref|Firefight|14}} However, she is far from omniscient. She cannot see all bodies of water at once, nor can she scan or randomly find things.{{book ref|Firefight|9}}
;Prognostication: The "Class F" ability to see the future. However, she can rarely interpret what she sees, so this does not elevate her to High Epic status.{{book ref|Firefight|17}}
 
=== Weakness ===
 
While Regalia's weakness is never revealed explicitly in the series, her weakness is being proven wrong.{{ref|name=boom}} Her weakness is noticeably triggered at least twice. First, when David calls Regalia to the Reckoner base, it takes her a while to appear in water form.{{book ref|Firefight|41}} This is because she was looking for the Reckoners in the wrong location the whole time. When David summoned her, she realized she was wrong, and thus was unable to use her powers for a short time.{{ref|name=boom}} Second, when Regalia attempts to make David an Epic, he resists becoming an Epic, upon which Regalia's water form vanishes.{{book ref|Firefight|42}} Previously, she revealed she was absolutely certain [[Calamity|Calamity(Epic)]] would be able to make David into an Epic.{{book ref|Firefight|41}}
 
== History ==
== Trivia ==
* She is featured in a full-color Epic File found in the Books-a-Million special edition of [[Steelheart]].{{ref|name=bam}}
* Regalia's weakness was never discovered in the series. Brandon Sanderson stated in an online Q&A in 2015 that her weakness was being proven wrong. This is why her projection dissipated after David resisted Calamity.{{ref|name=boom}}
