Sorry, I was taking NPC Blink to be canon, not trying to work out which was canon.

Anyway, it appears that the players have a direction limit (line of sight) while the NPCs do not, allowing Granny Rags to turn the stair corners, but at such speed she seems to teleport. Plus, the NPCs that disappear entirely (like Nadia) could just be better than Daud at blinking, as Daud did lose some of his powers by some means since he killed Jessamine. And Corvo can Blink through shattered door windows, which could explain how Lurk appears in that outside corridor thing in the Slaughterhouse, while Daud cannot as the game room must have boundaries, which shifts that particular issue from Blink to maps, and many other examples are probably shifted too. It also explains the visualisation thing you overhear the two Whalers talking about. The blinker picks where to go, the power works out how to get there. Thanks for asking Harvey, this all makes sense now. I think.

At least we won't have this whole thing with Far Reach. That's obviously line of sight rapid transit.
