Offr.com: What's it worth?
"Most people know Offr.com as the home of the gig economy: a website where you can find a buyer for your old couch, and a worker to haul it away. It’s the home of everything from marketplace goods and bespoke commissions to task fulfillment and transportation services. Some whisper about less-than-legal deals being available on a 'dark web' version of Offr.com. The company denies these claims."
Sooner or later, all Contractors receive an invitation to join Offr Red, the secret membership tier. Offr Red members gain access to exclusive high-confidence, anonymous services. They can sell extraordinary items to Offr or put them up for auction for other Offr Red members to bid on. Crafty Contractors rejoice!
On rare occasions, Offr can even make deals to tie up pesky Loose Ends. However, they always demand a special favor in return.

Lod Listens
Lod's listens to others, not through his ears, but through his heart
Lod, after his time in China, was able to understand how to commune with others, just as he was allowed to during his 4th contract by the cosmic powers-at-be. He can use his psychic powers to forcefully compress the information he is receiving, at an incredibly fast speed, which allows him to transform that knowledge into a form that is more easily digestible and understandable by Lod.

Birdsong
Kindred spirits need no language to converse.
Zephyren's birdlike senses have attuned him to the so-called languages of the animal kingdom. He can finally comprehend the song of the forests, but this is only the beginning.
On music:
It's a blemish in Zephyren's past, yet one of his most fond highlights all the same. The sense of community that music brings is universal, as anyone can understand when a score sounds upbeat or solemn. He could put his emotions into it and no one would know the subject of his grief, only that he does have feelings after all. It never quite leaves his mind, so he finds himself stopping in his tracks whenever he hears it - whether geophonic or anthropophonic or biophonic - he has to appreciate how it all flows together.
On animals:
Wildlife is harder to spot in Hong Kong, with all the urbanization. Zephyren remembers his first few months in Canada, which were often spent just gawking at the animals he's never seen. Particularly, he had no idea coyotes were dangerous. Whoops.
On comprehension:
Now that even animals can speak to him, he has more noise to filter through. It might just be his downfall.

The Ferryman's Guidance
"Just tell me what you need."
The target becomes visible to those around, looking as they did before they died - injuries healed, as if they had just woken up in the morning. As the time runs down, they begin to slowly look like they did as they died, until finally at the hour's mark their final wound appears, and they die all over again.
Usually, she helps those she speaks to move on. When this happens, they are led through to what's next before they die again. This doesn't usually come up on contract, however.
Exert your Mind and spend an Action. Select a Dead target within 50 feet. For dead targets, you must possess their name or a piece of their remains.
The target can communicate in your language for the next hour.
You may only use this Effect once per target per day.
- You can target yourself if you qualify as a valid target by the other requirements.
