Offr.com: What's it worth?
"Most people know Offr.com as the home of the gig economy: a website where you can find a buyer for your old couch, and a worker to haul it away. It’s the home of everything from marketplace goods and bespoke commissions to task fulfillment and transportation services. Some whisper about less-than-legal deals being available on a 'dark web' version of Offr.com. The company denies these claims."
Sooner or later, all Contractors receive an invitation to join Offr Red, the secret membership tier. Offr Red members gain access to exclusive high-confidence, anonymous services. They can sell extraordinary items to Offr or put them up for auction for other Offr Red members to bid on. Crafty Contractors rejoice!
On rare occasions, Offr can even make deals to tie up pesky Loose Ends. However, they always demand a special favor in return.

Daoist Dialogue
“In Eastern culture, people see ghosts, people talk about ghosts… it’s just accepted. And in Western culture it’s just not.” - Jessica Alba
Somm gathers the descendant daughter into the room, seating her across from him at the table. Somm then plays off a riff from a traditional taoist instrument, and as the sound streams through the air the wispy spirit of the girl's ancestor is summoned into the room: called from the grave.
Somm utilizes a Taoist technique in which one's ancestor can be contacted through the usage of their descendant as a conduit / tie to the modern world of the living: however this requires that one is able to play a summoning / heralding "Call" for them, which is satisfied by the focus of this power. The actual technique which this is, is referred to as Mun Mai.
