The power to learn details about others.
Used by Mark Collins, Created by Redchigh.
(During Effect activation, you are obviously interacting with the target. )

Marks caught a few villians in his day, and one thing they always seem to have in common is they never shut up.
He's learned how to conversationally 'push their buttons' and make them talk.
So far, the most reliable way has been to talk about himself, to instigate their inevitable sense of competition.

Think more.. skill of conversation than anything supernatural.
