(When activating this Effect, it is obvious you are interacting with the target. You must actively and obviously be using Knife.)

Bu fang takes out his knife, as his knife glows a shade of gold, an illusion of him appearing behind is target, and anyone nearby. This illusion, about 4 meter seems to tower over them, before grabbing something from them, something intangible, like some kind of thread and cooks it, while hovering over them for the entire duration.

If possible, Charisma+Cooking

If you succeed, all Animate targets within 20 feet of the chosen Location will suffer a dice penalty equal to the Outcome for the next 3 rounds. Dice pools may be reduced all the way down to 0 by this penalty.

  • This Penalty is not removed if a character Exerts their Mind to ignore penalty.
  • If a character has a dice pool reduced to 0, they cannot attempt that action.
  • You can target yourself if you qualify as a valid target by the other requirements.

  • You learn how to reliably contact the target.
  • The target’s trail for the past 24 hours is revealed to you and anyone you teach to follow it. This trail shows how long ago the target was there and is followable even when they are in a vehicle.

You cannot investigate the same target more than once per day.

  • Contact info Low Outcome: a means of communication (phone, email, a secretary). High Outcome: specific phone numbers, email addresses, protocols for getting access to the individual.
