Faerie Tongues Gibberish 1

1
The power to communicate with humans.
Used by Morgan Kelly, Created by Omennik.
(This Effect is obviously Alien when used. It is clear that you are communicating with the target. You must actively and obviously be using up alcohol.)

Tbd

Exert your Mind and spend an Action. You must use up alcohol in order to activate this Effect.

You may understand and communicate to humans as if you are fluent in a relevant language for the next hour.

This also includes understanding any recorded communications from the relevant targets, including writings, scent trails, etc.

While active and speaking to a single individual, you may choose to use glib tongue. When you do, anything you say to them (even gibberish) will be exactly what they want to hear. You gain no understanding of what that might be.

  • The target of "human" refers to any target that speaks a human language.
  • When reading written communications, you get no information beyond what the writer was intending to communicate.
