Commune with the Animals

1
The power to communicate with terrestrial animal.
Used by Gideon Vipponah, Created by Devils_Theatre.
(Activating this Effect is not obvious. The only sign you are using an Effect is a golden sheen in the eyes of you and any animals you are communicating with. )

You can speak to and understand any animal. Others who witness cannot make out what you are saying, just incomprehensible nonsense to anyone who cannot also commune with animals. Not words or babbling, more grunts and random mouth and throat noises. The animals only seem to make occasional, natural noises, not even constant. To most this just seems like weird "animal whisperer" behavior and is dismissed as such.

Exert your Mind and spend an Action. Select a terrestrial animal target within 50 feet.

The target can communicate in your language for the next hour.

This Effect is not obvious, and the only sign you are using an Effect is a golden sheen in the eyes of you and any animals you are communicating with. If someone suspects that an Effect was used, they must roll Perception + Alertness, Difficulty 8 to pick up on your Tell.

  • Communing with terrestrial animal does not grant them intellect but does allow you to converse with them.
  • 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.

Exert your Mind and spend an Action. Select a Dead target within 50 feet. For dead targets, you must possess their belonging. You must make a Trauma roll when you use this Effect. Its Difficulty cannot be reduced by any means. If you fail or Botch, you receive one Mind Damage and a new Trauma.

The target can communicate in your language for the next hour.

While active and speaking to a single individual, you may choose to use glib tongue. When you do, anything you say to them (even gibberish) will be exactly what they want to hear. You gain no understanding of what that might be.

Anyone who witnesses you during this Effect's activation will almost certainly be disturbed to see seeing your tongue turn into a green tentacle with a mouth on the end come out of your mouth, and begin speaking in the voice of the deceased.

  • When narrating disturbing content, be cognizant of your group's tone and accommodating to those who would like to "fast forward" through the description.
