Legacy Power: Hearts & Minds
Edgar carefully scoops out the dead mans eye with one talon, before swallowing it whole with delight, "They took you by surprise, eh? Bad luck, friend."
A 1 Gift Read Memory Power created by Strazhari.
Description
Edgar's ability to sift information from the corpses he consumes has increased. When eating a corpse he can exert mind & roll Per. + Inv. to probe the memories of the deceased. Only works on corpses 24 hours old or longer. If Edgar can eat both the heart & brain of a subject, there is no expenditure required.
System
Select a Living, Animate target within Arm's Reach, Exert your Mind, spend 2 Rounds establishing a connection, and roll [[activation-roll]], which the target can contest by rolling [[resistance]]. You must maintain concentration as long as you are reading their memories. The target is aware that their thoughts are being probed but not of the source. If the target moves out of range or your concentration is interrupted, the effect ends.
This Power lets you ask specific questions about the target’s memory like “what is their computer password,” “What were they doing at 4:00PM yesterday?” “When was the last time they met so and so?”, And answers generally play back like a scene. This Power does not allow you to glean large synthesis answers like “Is she a good person?” “Is she planning on backstabbing us?” “Is she popular?”
