Charlatans
“Unsettling are the days in which everyone is an expert.”
― Criss Jami
Nowadays you can't go a day without some phony prophet trying to peddle their wares to you.
Driven by the increased interest in the supernatural, charlatans from palm readers to televangelists are everywhere. And while the vast majority of witches, psychics, magicians, hypnotists, cures, potions, faith healers, and clairvoyants are complete fakes, they do make a living.
As the saying goes, "it's easier for an actor to make it in alternative medicine than Hollywood."
Most people scoff at these clearly-phony supernatural services, yet those same people often buy into at least one scam.
The most dangerous charlatans are the self-styled monster hunters who carry a mall-ninja arsenal and guns with silver bullets. Most have never encountered anything supernatural and do absolutely nothing besides burn some sage and patrol the area for a night or two. Even so, those who are superstitious, fearful, or desperate enough will hire them to solve the problems they simply don't understand. In some cases with disastrous results.
For Contractors, charlatans are red herrings and obstacles. Clumsy fakes that conjure a smokescreen of misinformation and escalate the situations they're in.

Tempus Videt Omnia
I looked into time and heard it calling to me.
Alan's irises, no longer a faint blue, are now brilliant emerald green, and seem to catch the light like they were jewels. When he uses his sight to react preeminently or trace the threads of time to catch clues he might otherwise miss, this spreads over his whole sclera and shrinks his pupil to a pinpoint, giving the look of actual gemstones in his eye sockets to the truly observant. Regardless, they look more haunted now.
A foolhardy attempt a a ritual beyond his skill gave Alan a glimpse of the infinity of time. His eyes have absorbed the emerald he used as a focus, and this has sharpened his perception of the world, as well as letting him glimpse the interactions of the timelines of himself and people and things around him. This event has strained his mind, however, and left him more susceptible to traumas from events around him.
