Memes (A - C)

The following is an alphabetical list of Memes, from A to C. This page also includes memes that begin with a number.

AMANUENSIS
Classes: Aka Meme
Activation Time: Standard action
Range: Touch
Target: One book, document, akashic stone, or similar
Duration: Instantaneous
Saving Throw: None
Blue Opposition: Yes
With a touch, you rapidly absorb information.
You absorb the contents of an item that contains information, be it written, pictorial, or memetic (such as an akashic stone). You can absorb roughly one page, one picture, or one memory with each use of this ability. If the information contained pertains to an event, you can use event loresight on that event so long as you retain the memory.
Memory: For each point of memory you have invested in this meme, you can absorb one additional page, picture, or memory.
Belief-Space: While this meme is part of your belief-space, you are drawn to non-interactive sources of information. You gain a +1/memory invested insight bonus to delve into blue checks. However, you are much less aware of your own memories, and so lose one active meme slot, plus an additional active meme slot for every four memory invested.

 

AMNESIA
Classes: Aka Meme [Mind-affecting]
Activation Time: Standard action
Range: 0 feet
Area: 60-foot radius spread, centered on you
Duration: 1 round
Saving Throw: Will negates
Blue Opposition: Yes
You intercept information packets with haphazard and jumbled memes, preventing information in your immediate vicinity from becoming permanent.
When you use this meme, you can choose whether or not you are affected by it.
For the duration of this effect, events that occur are effectively transient, incapable of becoming permanently settled in either creatures' or the world memory. After a time, the entirety of time of this effect's duration becomes cloudy in creatures' minds, and they become unable to precisely recall what occurred.
Any attempt to gain information regarding anything that occurred within this effect's duration must make a Force-user level check against DC 11 + your memeticist level. If you opted to retain memory of what transpired, the DC is instead 5 + your memeticist level, and a recall memory used on you will remove the check entirely, opening the memory up to the world (as well as all creatures, objects, and locations that were present for the time).
Memory: For each point of memory you have invested in this meme, this effect lasts an additional round.
Belief-Space: While this meme is part of your belief-space, you become secretive and protective of knowledge, but your recollection of knowledge is enhanced by your constant awareness of it in your mind. You gain a +1/memory invested insight bonus to all Knowledge checks, but each time you would share information with someone, you must make a Will save against this meme or else opt not to share. Effects that attempt to read your memory, such as creature loresight, must succeed on a Force-user level check against DC 11 + your memeticist level, or else reveal nothing; and you gain a +2/memory invested insight bonus to Will saves against learn secret and similar effects.

 

AUTOTOXIC MEME
Classes: Aka Meme [Mind-affecting]
Activation Time: Standard action
Range: Close (25 feet + 5 feet/2 memory invested)
Target: One creature
Duration: 1 round + 1 round/memory invested
Saving Throw: Will negates
Blue Opposition: Yes
You force an autotoxic meme into a creature's mind, which pushes it into a murderous frenzy.
The target begins raging, as a barbarian, and must engage opponents in melee combat.
Memory: For each point of memory you have invested in this meme, the duration is increased by 1 round.
Belief-Space: While this meme is part of your belief-space, your understanding of autotoxic information increases tenfold, by virtue of having one take up residence in your mind. Creatures affected by this meme will attack a creature that attacks them until they or their target is dead. However, you are incapable of paying attention to your own well-being, and as such suffer a -4 penalty to your AC, and when you take damage, you take half again as much.

 

CREATURE LORESIGHT
Classes: Aka Meme
Activation Time: Standard action
Range: Touch
Target: One creature (living or dead)
Duration: Instantaneous
Saving Throw: Will negates (Object)
Blue Opposition: Yes (Object)
You touch an creature, and information regarding it floods your mind.
If the creatures fails a Will save, you gain information regarding it.
 
Facts Learned
1st Creature's race or type.
2nd Creature's name (if none, then skip).
3rd Creature's class (if none, then skip).
4th How the creature died (if not applicable, then skip).
5th Creature's most recent, basic goal.
6th Creature's attitude towards you.
7th Creature this creature interacted with most recently, other than you.
8th Creature's most valuable possession, if any.
9th Location of the creature's home or lair, if any.
10th Creature's current thoughts. If dead, you learn the creature's last thoughts.
11th Most significant event in the creature's life 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 continue to learn more significant events, though their significance decreases over time.
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 a creature's memories into yours, giving you benefits in interacting with it. This gives you a +1/two memory insight bonus to any checks made to interact with a creature (such as Bluff, Diplomacy, Intimidate, and Sense Motive) on whom 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 people and the role they play in the creation of history; in particular, this preoccupation overrides your interest in places, objects, or events. You cannot have this meme bound to your belief-space and any other loresight meme bound at the same time.

 

CRUNCH
Classes: Trn Meme [Learnable, Technic]
Activation Time: Attack action
Range: Touch
Target: One creature
Duration: Instantaneous
Saving Throw: Fortitude negates (see text)
Blue Opposition: No
Recharge: 4
You snap your jaws sharply on the target, potentially hindering its ability to defend itself.

If you do not have a bite attack, you instead deal only the bonus shadow damage. The creature suffers a -2 penalty to its next saving throw, with an additional -1 for every 2 memory invested.
A successful saving throw against this effect negates the saving throw penalty and halves the shadow damage.
