OWL - The Occult Wildlife Landing

Benoit Lavernge is a practitioner of the magics of voodoo tradition, and one of the most important lessons he learned from this practice is how to speak with the spirits, be they mystical or ancestral.

The Witch Doctor points his cane at the corpse, the ragged wounds in it's side still oozing blood, though no longer fresh enough to truly drip "Now, friend, let's have a little talk"

Grace brings Sally out from her designated satchel and sets her in front of the dead body (or token for it). Grace’s eyes flashing red, then Sally’s, then the targets- like a chain- means the connection is successful.

Harold Polk’s Linguistic Espionage Mastery is a unique fusion of his perfect memory and deep understanding of Speech Act Theory, allowing him to communicate in any language with native fluency and cultural precision. Through his flawless recall, Harold has accumulated vast stores of linguistic patterns, dialects, and subtleties, giving him an intuitive grasp of each language’s nuances. He doesn’t merely translate words; he understands their intent, context, and hidden meaning, slipping into conversations as though he were born to each language he speaks.

With Speech Act Theory, Harold imbues his words with layers of meaning and influence, embedding subtle cues to guide others’ perceptions or actions. Every word he speaks carries intent, carefully crafted to either blend into the conversation or gently steer it, as if he were weaving an invisible thread through every interaction. This mastery makes him a linguistic ghost, an agent who can infiltrate through language alone, understanding and subtly shaping discussions to achieve his aims without ever raising suspicion.

The scattered cards begin to float, briefly haunted by the target spirit, and the air rings out with the directionless voice of the departed for the duration.

The beastmaster can speak to and understand any animal.
