Forespoken The words are not mine. They are the ones you were always meant to hear.
Amy glimpses thousands of possible futures to find where she says the right thing. She simply repeats what she hears, whether it's merely translating a language or saying exactly what someone wants to hear.
Exert your Mind (unless you win a coin flip) and spend an Action.
You may understand and communicate to humans and Sapient beings as if you are fluent in a relevant language for the next 30 seconds.
While active and speaking to a single individual, you may choose to use glib tongue. When you do, anything you say to them (even gibberish) will be exactly what they want to hear. You gain no understanding of what that might be.
While this Effect is active, you are at -2 dice to all Actions and cannot Concentrate.
- The target of "human" refers to any target that speaks a human language.

Offr.com: What's it worth?
"Most people know Offr.com as the home of the gig economy: a website where you can find a buyer for your old couch, and a worker to haul it away. It’s the home of everything from marketplace goods and bespoke commissions to task fulfillment and transportation services. Some whisper about less-than-legal deals being available on a 'dark web' version of Offr.com. The company denies these claims."
Sooner or later, all Contractors receive an invitation to join Offr Red, the secret membership tier. Offr Red members gain access to exclusive high-confidence, anonymous services. They can sell extraordinary items to Offr or put them up for auction for other Offr Red members to bid on. Crafty Contractors rejoice!
On rare occasions, Offr can even make deals to tie up pesky Loose Ends. However, they always demand a special favor in return.

The Diplomat
All Head Honchos got to be able to speak with all of their subordinates
By connecting with nature so intimately, Janice is able to interpret and comprehend almost every creature around her. To the animals, it might come as a surprise that she speaks the same "language" that they do, though her voice sounds more tinny to them. To other humans, she comes across as a person with a distinct American accent.
Beginning to understand the nature of the universe, Janice is able to interpret the minds of her fellow life on Earth. Consciousness and Sapience are really two sides of the same coin when it comes to communication. Language is a way to connect people through culture and upbringing.

Lod Listens
Lod's listens to others, not through his ears, but through his heart
Lod, after his time in China, was able to understand how to commune with others, just as he was allowed to during his 4th contract by the cosmic powers-at-be. He can use his psychic powers to forcefully compress the information he is receiving, at an incredibly fast speed, which allows him to transform that knowledge into a form that is more easily digestible and understandable by Lod.

Indiscreet Maid's Talisman
Hearing twice more than you should and understanding all of it.
Indiscreet Maid's Talisman is an amulet that allows Maggie to understand all spoken and written languages, provided she takes a moment to concentrate on the pendant. The pendant, crafted from rose quartz and sculpted into the shape of a tongue, bears the image of a tower on between the tongue and upper lip. When activated, the amulet grants her the ability to decipher even the most obscure and forgotten tongues, unlocking secrets and hidden meanings. However, the power requires focus—without taking a moment to concentrate, the knowledge remains elusive, as if the languages are still shrouded in mystery.
