Legacy Power: Diagnose

"If it works, we're right. If he dies, it was something else."

A 2 Gift Investigate Individual Power used by Dr. Egas Freeman, created by shady.

Description

By examining an individual for a minute, you may diagnose any medical ailment, diseases, or other health issues they have. This process generally requires the target's cooperation, or at least that they not resist your examination. This power does not grant you additional information about the ailment besides its identity.

System

Spend a Willpower and 1 minute examining a consenting or incapacitated target. Roll Perception + Medicine difficulty 6. 1 success is enough to understand how injured the target is, 3 successes will reveal all mundane ailments, 5 successes will reveal all supernatural ailments.


Enhancements

  • Concealed (Using this Effect is not obvious. Choose a Tell that occurs only when you use the Effect; if-- and only if-- someone suspects that a Effect was used, they must roll Perception + Alertness, Difficulty 8 to pick up on your Tell.)
  • Other (You can learn some other piece of information about the target)
    • Type of Information - Medical status, diseases, toxins, and venoms affecting the target

  • Species (You learn what the target's species is called, as well as some basic facts about it.)

Drawbacks

  • Easy to Resist (The target must either consent to be targeted or be unconscious, hypnotized, thoroughly drugged, in surgery or similarly incapacitated such that they could not or would not roll to resist this Power.)
