Legacy Power: The Skeleton Key

He keeps it on a loop around his neck, and never takes it off.

A 0 Gift Unlock / Open Power used by Tyke, created by xdad314.

Description

At first glance, this appears to be a standard, modern house key made of ivory. A close observer might compliment its skull-shaped head or usual material. No one would suspect it to be one of the Thief's most prized possessions: The Skeleton Key.

The Skeleton Key slips easily into any small or medium-sized keyhole and turns without a fuss. The thief even used it on a door that used key-cards once.

System

Spend an Action and use The Skeleton Key to lock or unlock any lock within Arm's Reach. It cannot be used on locks more complicated than a residential door or common padlock, and it can only open locks that require a key of some sort.
