CryptoLeak: Silence is Broken
CryptoLeak is a video streaming platform with a singular goal: to allow users to upload and share video content, no matter what. Videos uploaded to cryptoleak cannot be removed, doctored, or censored.
Despite a near-universal condemnation by world leaders, most people greatly appreciate CryptoLeak. It's the go-to platform for posting illuminations, whistleblowing evidence, and data leaks.
CryptoLeak is a mundane technlogical entity that cannot be controlled or destroyed. It has no backing business or organization. It utilizes a distributed architecture that allows it to host content across the entire world, sharding and mirroring its petabytes of data accross millions of personal devices. Content uploaded to CryptoLeak is immutable and cannot be doctored or redacted by any known means.
For once, technology has put the power in the hands of the little guys.
World governments and other powerful organizations can still censor or restrict access to CryptoLeak within their domains, and they sometimes utilize the platform for misinformation and psy-ops campaigns. However, for most people, CryptoLeak represents the freedom to speak and be heard.
Of course, simply uploading a video does not gaurentee it will be seen or gain traction, nor does it protect you from any consequences that may come along with pulling back the veil. . .

Investigate Area Gifts
Glances
"Show me everything."
At times, a quick investigation and a bit of pleading to your benefactor is all you need to solve the case. In turn, there's a decent chance you might be thrown that small scrap of evidence that blows the case wide open.
Brief visions granted to Frank by the spirit of film noir (as opposed to the whispers). Typically used as a last resort once an investigations reached a dead in, there's a great shame involved in utilizing glances. It's like confessing that you've got nothing left, that you're not good enough for the case... not without this crutch.

Scoping out the opposition
“Give me a moment, I know a guy.”
Yado takes the phone. He hears a familiar voice; his contact from the other side.
The contact proceeds to pit a copy of his astral corpus to fight in a gun fight against astral manifestations of the world itself, trying to stop Yado from achieving his goals. The better the astral corpus of Yado performs, the better is the information that he receives about the area.

Locus Resonance
"The Veil can teach us many secrets; we need but ask."
Cássio draws the focus card from the deck and focuses, closing his eyes. The card then bursts into shadow flame and "slots" itself into the ground, letting out a wave of arcane energy that resonates with the Veil in the target radius. Cássio then opens his eyes, which have turned pitch black, and is able to sense the impressions upon the veil where spirits have departed this realm, as well as disturbances caused by sources of otherworldly energy. Opening one's mind to this much otherworldly information at once can be dangerous, and Cássio needs to steel himself lest he be overwhelmed by the pain of the deceased.

Watchman's Way
See through the Night Sun's eye.
You enter a meditative state as you drift off to sleep. In your dreams you find yourself in a nearby locale, and may move imperceptibly in both time and space to a limited degree.
While you are in this space, your surroundings are misty and ethereal, and may behave in a dreamlike, disjointed manner. However, you are able to perceive things your waking senses could not. With some creative interpretation, you can use this information to discern who and what has travelled through this area and when, potentially picking up useful trails or clues. While this is the gift's primary function, it is also as a side effect particularly sensitive to supernatural or alien energies or effects, allowing you to potentially perceive them.
While you dream, your material body behaves exactly as it would during mundane sleep. You are exactly as vulnerable as usual and may be woken by any especially loud sound or contact.
