Legacy Power: Uncanny Understanding
"That's interesting... Lovely meeting you." *Wink*
A 1 Gift Investigate Individual Power used by Emanuel Baxter, created by BoringIndividual.
Description
User rolls Intelligence + influence to gain knowledge about a target who they just shook hands with.
System
Exert your Mind, choose a Sapient target within Arm's Reach and spend 2 Rounds examining them. At the end of the cast time roll Intellect + Influence Difficulty 6. The quality of the information you receive depends on your Outcome, and the nature of the information depends on the Enhancements you have chosen.
The number of information-revealing Enhancements attached to this power is limited to 2 for Novice characters, 4 for Seasoned characters, and 7 for Veteran characters. You may still take any number of other, non-informational enhancements.
Enhancements
- Diagnostic (Determine any medical or physiological issues they have, as well as their species and a general overview of their biology.)
- Cantrip (Activating this Effect has no Exertion cost, but it can have no more than 3 Drawbacks and its Gift Cost can never be increased above 2.)
- Lucifer (You learn a hidden desire of the target.)
-
Concealed
(Using this Effect is not obvious. Choose a Tell that occurs only when you use the Effect; if-- and only if-- someone suspects that a Effect was used, they must roll Perception + Alertness, Difficulty 8 to pick up on your Tell.)
-
Tell - A subtle quick wink
-
Drawbacks
- Humanities (This Effect can only be used on Humans.)
-
Conditional
(This Effect is only available when a certain condition is met. This condition must be severe enough that this Gift is unusable the majority of the time.)
- Condition - The user must shake the targets hand to gain the information
-
Focus
(Using this Effect requires a specific kind of item.)
- Object - A pair of glasses
