Used by Cleatus Abernathy, Created by leonvanderblight.
(Activating this Effect is not obvious. The only sign you are using an Effect is Fiddling with his indiana ranger star. )

Since his reform Cleatus has had some trouble getting in touch with the more sensible side of things, but with some help from a good friend and a healthy dose of therapy Cleatus has gotten in touch with the part of him that really understands how people around him feel, and with a little elbow grease and a hearty conversation the two of them can reveal all sorts of hidden things, and with a little brow beating Cleatus can extract things that the target in question would never have wanted exposed.
