OBJECT LORESIGHT
Classes: Aka
Activation Time: Standard action
Range: Touch
Target: One item
Duration: Instantaneous
Saving Throw: Will negates (Object)
Blue Opposition: Yes (Object)
You touch an object, giving you a clearer understanding of its history.
If the object fails a Will save (note that only attended or Force items can attempt such a save), you learn something about the item.
Facts Learned 1st Age of object. 2nd Name of last creature to touch the object, if any (other than you). 3rd Race of last creature to touch the object, if any (other than you). 4th Name of the object’s creator (a natural object, like a rock, was created by Nature). 5th Race of the object’s creator, if any. 6th Object’s intended purpose. 7th Material(s) that makes up the object. 8th Location of the object’s creation. 9th Name of the most recent owner of the object, if any. 10th Force ability of the object, if any (random if more than one). 11th Most significant event the item has been present for of which you are unaware.
Multiple uses of this meme allow you to gain more information. If you already know all of the above, you learn nothing more about the object.
Memory: For each point of memory you have invested in this meme, you learn an additional fact per use.
Belief-Space: While this meme is part of your belief-space, you have the ability to incorporate an object's history into your understanding of the world, giving you insight into its function. This gives you a +1/two memory insight bonus to any checks made to manipulate an object on which you have used this meme. This bonus lasts for 1 round/memory invested.
While this meme is bound to your belief-space, you have a preoccupation with the importance of inanimate objects and the role they play in the creation of history; in particular, this preoccupation overrides your interest in persons, places, or events. You cannot have this meme bound to your belief-space and any other loresight meme bound at the same time.

 

QUERY
Classes: Aka
Activation Time: Full-round action
Range: Personal
Effect: One response
Duration: Instantaneous
Saving Throw: None
Blue Opposition: No
You let your mind become one with the akashic record, seeking an answer to a question.
You align your mental processes with the Blue, allowing you to access it deeper than you can casually. This gives you unparalleled ability to answer questions and learn information about the world.
You may ask the Blue a question, of any complexity. More complex questions have a greater chance to fail, as attempting to correlate information from throughout the whole of memory is a difficult and complex process.
The base chance of success is 50%. More complex questions reduce this, while simpler questions improve it; in general, a complex question will have a success chance of 25%, while simple questions will have a success chance of 75%. If you succeed, you learn the answer to your question. If you fail, you do not, and the chance of success for asking the question again is reduced by 25%.
Memory: For each point of memory you have invested in this meme, the chance of success increases by 5%.
Belief-Space: While this meme is part of your belief-space, you become more inquisitive, and your mind automatically turns to the Blue when pondering a particular question or situation; however, this introspection often leads you on mental tangents, inhibiting your ability to notice the world around you. You gain a +1/two memory invested bonus to all Knowledge checks, and suffer a -1/memory invested penalty to all Perception-based checks.
