SHADOW SPIES

Cost: Imbue 1 Legend
Duration: Indefinite
Subject: Shadows
Range: Long
Action: Simple
You may compel the shadows to reveal the secrets of those they’ve seen. You must be able to perceive a shadow to compel it to reveal its secrets. They will always answer truthfully, but their understanding is limited by their nature: A shadow cast by a torch or a light can identify basic information, while a lantern could describe the presence of two figures arguing, but it doesn’t understand what they may have said. Shadows cast by people are more articulate, able to understand and relate much about what they see. These shadows have an Attitude of 3 towards you.

As long as you imbue Legend in this boon, the shadow’s answers provide Enhancement 3 on any applicable rolls.

  • Leader Specific: Lord of Shadows: You may animate a shadow to move separately from its master, and it can even interact with the environment around it. Treat an animate shadow as if it were a Follower with a number of tags equal to (Legend/2, rounded up). The animate shadow remains as long as Legend is imbued. You may only maintain a single instance of this effect at any given time.
