To friends old and new Lets play again
The caster sings a song the language and words change, but the message stays the same. The joining of friends and remembrance of the dead. As the song continues a ghost wind wraps the caster moving their clothing. If cast on a dead target a ghostly form slowly forms, as long as the dead wishes to be seen. This form is formed from mist coming from the folds of the hat.
Exert your Mind and spend one minute. Select a Sapient being, human, Creature, or Dead target within 50 feet. For dead targets, you must possess their A personal Memory of them.
The target can communicate in your language for the next hour.
- Communing with creatures does not grant them intellect but does allow you to converse with them.
- The target of "human" refers to any target that speaks a human language.
- 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.

Charlatans
“Unsettling are the days in which everyone is an expert.”
― Criss Jami
Nowadays you can't go a day without some phony prophet trying to peddle their wares to you.
Driven by the increased interest in the supernatural, charlatans from palm readers to televangelists are everywhere. And while the vast majority of witches, psychics, magicians, hypnotists, cures, potions, faith healers, and clairvoyants are complete fakes, they do make a living.
As the saying goes, "it's easier for an actor to make it in alternative medicine than Hollywood."
Most people scoff at these clearly-phony supernatural services, yet those same people often buy into at least one scam.
The most dangerous charlatans are the self-styled monster hunters who carry a mall-ninja arsenal and guns with silver bullets. Most have never encountered anything supernatural and do absolutely nothing besides burn some sage and patrol the area for a night or two. Even so, those who are superstitious, fearful, or desperate enough will hire them to solve the problems they simply don't understand. In some cases with disastrous results.
For Contractors, charlatans are red herrings and obstacles. Clumsy fakes that conjure a smokescreen of misinformation and escalate the situations they're in.

Goddamnit, that raccoon had managed to find its way into the shed with all of the feed again... It wasn't the end of the world, not like the little guy was gonna eat his way through a couple dozen cow's worth of feed anytime soon, but the raccoon would probably end up trapped in here if she didn't help him out, and if Rosie tried she was probably only gonna end up scaring him and getting bit.

Demon tongue
Know the language of all.
Activating this requires Liv to do a small ritual, where she channels the demon from an artifact, and draws on it's knowledge of all the languages of the world. The looks like Liv chanting a bit, and then a bit of dark energy flowing into Liv's mouth.
Liv can speak in any language, and understand all languages exposed she is exposed to. She can allow the demon to speak for her, and it will say what the person she is talking to wants to hear, soothing them.
The power relies on Liv conceptually borrowing the speech ability of demons.
