Look at Yourself Reflecting the ugly truth.
As the large man in front of Nathan explains the wonderful quality of his wares, Nathan obviously maintains eye contact and nods along to the lies. A voice in his mind whispers the truth.
This Effect activates whenever a Sapient within range who you stare into the eye of lies. It does not require an Action or Exertion. Select a Sapient target within arm's reach. At the end of your investigation, roll Intellect + Occult at Difficulty 6. The target resists by rolling Mind at Difficulty 7.
You learn all the following information about your target:
- You learn a hidden desire of the target. Roll Outcome determines the relevancy / secret-ness of the desire.
- You learn what they were hiding with their lies.
The quality and specificity of information gained depends on your Outcome.
- When triggered, the Effect activation resolves immediately after the triggering Action. It is not Reaction speed.
- You can target yourself if you qualify as a valid target by the other requirements.
- Your target must be within line of sight, or within range of another sense if more fitting for the Gift's flavor.

OWL - The Occult Wildlife Landing
The Occult Wildlife Landing (OWL) is a nonprofit organization that advocates for the rights of supernatural creatures to live a life unmolested by humanity’s relentless spread and greed.
While OWL has become the de-facto head of the conservationist movement in the United States, many claim it’s not as innocent as it appears. A number of small, seemingly-disconnected terrorist cells wear the OWL insignia with pride. These groups– which tend to contain a disproportionate number of supernatural creatures and beings– commit high-profile acts of public violence with the intent of furthering OWL’s core objectives. In the past, they’ve blown up oil pipelines, stopped development projects, and even infected congregations of people with mutagenic viruses.
OWL denies any involvement with these so-called “OWL-inspired terrorist organizations” (or OITOs for short). However, many people conflate the two and consider OWL itself to be a terrorist organization.
One thing is for certain: when OWL sends a blast to its followers urging protest, they’re taken seriously.

Inquisition
To find what is not there
Part of the void's makeup consists of collective unconscious memories of those both living and dead. It is a dangerous place to travel and Void Travellers such as Athena require a method or focus to safely sift through it. In Athenas case, she has taken to using mirrors as the medium as to not threaten her immediate person.
However, occasionally, she oversteps her reach- to which the void demons and deities will tend to punish severely.
Exert your Mind and spend a minute to activate. Select a Sapient target or a Creature within 20 feet. You may select a target at any range if you use up Blood of the target.
