A character who, while still sighted, wears a blindfold and can still "see" perfectly well. May be due to Psychic Powers or a Charles Atlas Superpower bordering on Super Senses... super!

billybobfredAny Nethack character with telepathy can be one of these. In fact, intrinsic telepathy only works when you're somehow blinded, as if the devteam was trying to invoke this trope.

Starry-EyedAkira does this with Go in Hikaru No Go, when upperclassmen trying to haze him force him to play three simultaneous games while blindfold. Akira reads the flow of their games, rather than memorizing their moves, and schools two of them (although the terrible play of the third throws him off until the blindfold comes off.)
