Legacy Power: Crow Herald
"Caw Caw! -- I mean, my mistress bid me to deliver this message to you. . ."
A 1 Gift Send Message Power created by shady.
Description
The Witch summons a crow, whispers a message to it, and sends it off to deliver her words. Half an hour later, the crow arrives at the recipient and repeats her message aloud in its croaking, animal voice. The recipient may instruct the crow to relay a message back to The Witch.
System
Spend an Action to send a message to an individual within 10 miles. You must have a specific target in mind, but you require only an intuitive understanding of them, such as their name, face, or location. You may send a message to someone at any range provided you give the crow a trinket of theirs. The message can be no more complicated than a multi-page letter or long email. The message takes 30 minutes to arrive.
Can only be cast where crows can reach. The recipient must be somewhere a Crow could reach. Otherwise the message is delayed until they are.
The recipient may respond by relaying a message to the crow. Your message may be intercepted in transit, and any individuals near the target will be able to hear it.
