Skill Effect
Knowledge 1

Ability - Explorer’s Gaze

By investigating an effect obviously for 10 seconds and spending 1 stamina, you can ask for how powerful it is. This will tend to give you the Strength of the effect, it may reveal more on occasion. For example, you could detect a Strength 3 Protection enhancement on someone.

Knowledge 2

Ritual - Immersive Research 

By subjecting yourself to an effect, you can find out what caused it to occur. This is a much more hands-on version of investigating which should always lead to some potential risk. The more participants, the more information gained. You may use this on effects that you are already under.

Knowledge 3

Ritual - Shine the Light 

This ritual will reveal a number of secrets, visions or pieces of information about items, locations or people in the vicinity of the ritual. More participants means more information. It has a short range and the answers cannot be targeted to anything specific, but it is widely used in criminal or scholastic investigations as a starting point.

Example Answers: “There are two thieves in this room”, “The Phantom haunting this place was killed in a magical accident”, “You see a Hellion holding a bloodied knife and stabbing a ship”

Knowledge 4

Ability - Eidetic Memory 

Spend 10 seconds obviously investigating an object or area, then spend 4 stamina and ask a ref to take a photo of it. You will be emailed the photos with your downtime, or can call a ref over to consult them later that day. The photos may not be shared with other players. Multiple people using this on the same thing will get the same photos. At ref discretion may get further pictures or briefs.

Knowledge 5

Ritual - Shared Ideal 

Shared Ideal can enforce Truths on the world. The power level is relative to how important a Truth this is. You may:

  • Enforce Truths that cause lower-level Knowledge rituals to return a desired result.
  • Remove existing memories or implant new ones on a Target who is present throughout.
  • Create an enhancement on yourself that lets you use a lower-level skill that someone else knows, once.

Consent to the ritual isn’t required but makes it require fewer participants.
