Discretion
Keep quiet.
Stay still. Stay hidden. Hold your tongue and hold your breath, and wait for the perfect opportunity.
Those skilled in Discretion:
- Hide in plain sight.
- Are not overheard.
- Know when not to speak, or act.
1: Hide
- Speed: Action.
You hide from creatures that are aware of you but aren't able to see you (or detect you with another sense). Roll Discretion vs. Awareness for all of them. Creatures that fail stop being aware of your location.
3: Steganography
- Speed: Ritual.
You hide a secret message within another, innocuous, message. Only creatures with a Discretion higher than yours notice its presence, unless they are told that a hidden message is present. Anyone who knows the message is there may roll Discretion vs. yours to decipher it. You may share your techniques with other creatures, allowing them to decipher your messages without rolling.
5: Frightening Efficiency
If you act first in the first round of combat, your first attack that turn deals 2 extra damage.
7: Chameleon
- Speed: Reaction.
- Range: 5 m.
- Target: Creature.
Reaction when you are targeted by an ability or spell. Change its target to the affected creature.
9: Bones of Fiction
When you roll to lie to another creature, your total cannot be less than the skill you roll + Discretion. Magic cannot determine whether you are lying, nor force you to tell the truth.
