UX Upgrade : Omniscience v1.0

1
The power to learn details about others.
Used by Eun-Ha, Created by Aidoh.
(During Effect activation, you are obviously interacting with the target. You must actively and obviously be using an electronic device capable of some form of internet or networking.)

Naturally gods and goddesses are expected to be omniscient. As a digital-goddess-to-be Eun Ha should be as well, she's just...alpha testing it. One of the Divinity OS' more sophisticated features is sapient and creature analysis. For Eun Ha's personal comfort this has been translated into gaming terms and appears in a UI state reflecting this.

In order to meet all requirements for the system to begin analysis there must be some kind of in person interaction with the target to make them a viable subject. This must be personal or through someone with whom she's made a 'temporary minor-contract' to use as a peripheral. For the sake of ease, she refers to these entities as 'Party Members' and this has caused the system to limit how many can be affected in this way to three.

Afterwards by either scanning a photo, registering their appearance via video or digital observation, or simply through a reflection she may begin the analysis process.

She has since figured out a way to even further translate this by creating a script that publishes the information to a special web app she's programmed called the Farside Bestiary Lookup Tool. The app is available for mobile and PC, but works best on Android and Windows.

Spend a minute. Select a Sapient target or a Creature within 20 feet. You may select a target at any range if you use up a one-time Divinity OS manifested QR code from a photo, can see them digitally or through a reflection of the target. This Effect cannot be used unless there is a device near the target operating in some way with the Divinity OS and you or someone 'in your party' (maximum 3) has personally interacted with the target. You must actively and obviously use an electronic device capable of some form of internet or networking to activate this Effect. At the end of your investigation, roll Intellect + Technology at Difficulty 6.

You learn all the following information about your target:

  • You determine any medical or physiological issues they have, as well as their species and a general overview of their biology.
  • You learn the target's name, nicknames, screen names, and aliases.

The quality and specificity of information gained depends on your Outcome.

Any information you gather is manifested above the target as an intangible display name with a debuff marker(s). If mortal there's a tag displaying such under the name. This is automatically published in the Farside Bestiary Lookup Tool as an example for the given target if applicable and made publicly available.

This Gift's Cost is capped at 2 and cannot be increased further.

You cannot investigate the same target more than once per day.

  • 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.

Community Investigate Individual Gifts

Charlie feels out souls as if they were abstract environments tied to the person's inner self. A violent and insecure person would have a volcano twisted and bent, about to snap, while a gentle and patient person would have a calm pool of water in a delicate glade.

Charlie's own soul is an ever-changing labyrinth of railroad tracks reaching out in all directions shrouded in concrete tunnels. Among the many tunnels is a single winding rail lit by a green-blue light leading to some unknown place deep within.

(When describing the shape of a character's soul, consider the following:

- What is the character's temperament?

- What are the character's aspirations?

- How does the character view themselves?

- How can you tie the abstract shape of a soul to the character's nature?)
