The Interpretor Hey little mama lemme whisper in your ear

1
This Artifact grants you the power to communicate with humans and Sapient beings.
Used by Luci Alessi, Created by Riley.
(It is clear that you are communicating with the target. You must use this Artifact obviously when activating this Effect.)

You turn on and turn up the volume of your wireless headphones and they surge with thick black shadows before dying down when the cast ends. For the next ten minutes your shadow will whisper translations from any sapient target around you. When concerning other facets of communication, your shadow will interpret anything you see to you in real time.

Occasionally it will act out and critically fail.


Exert your Mind and spend an Action to activate. Roll a single D10 as a critical failure check. If you roll a 1, the Effect fails, and you The shadow incorrectly translates to you and will only translate racial slurs and taboo words.. Make a Trauma roll when you activate this Effect.

You may understand and communicate to humans and Sapient beings as if you are fluent in a relevant language for the next ten minutes.

This also includes understanding any recorded communications from the relevant targets, including writings, scent trails, etc.

After this Effect ends, you cannot move quicker than a walk for one minute and suffer a -1 dice penalty for an hour.

  • The target of "human" refers to any target that speaks a human language.
  • When reading written communications, you get no information beyond what the writer was intending to communicate.

  • Your target must be within line of sight, or within range of another sense if more fitting for the Gift's flavor.

The Gas Mask itself is rather normal with it looking Hi-Tech with small lightweight metal plates covering the outside. What makes this gas mask different is the filtration system itself, with making two small containment areas inside the two filter air filter areas, with the air being breathed in being imbued by 'Mana'. Which in turn either helps the body resist any effects or any diseases in his body, although it is to be known that the 'Mana' inside the mask seems to either help or doesn't and it also seems to weigh heavy on the mind of the user.
