A list of blue memes for all Blue-using classes.

The memes index includes a full index of all memes, as well as an explanation of some of the terms used in these descriptions. 

Memes Index | A - C | D - F | G - J | K - M | N - Q | R - T | U - Z

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.

ADAPTIVE MENTAL STATE
Classes: Aka Schema
Schema Cost: Active Meme Slots - 3 / Memory - 6 / Belief-Space - 4
You alter the way you think and perceive information from the Blue, and thus gain access to the abilities of those like you.
Choose one meme that is not on your class meme list. While this schema is bound, that meme is treated as though it were on your class list.
Memes you add to your list in this fashion still follow their own rules; that is, if an ability has a recharge rating, you must obey the rules for using that ability. If you choose a meme with the [Learnable] descriptor, you use the base values presented in the meme description.
Due to the alien nature of these memes to your mind, you cannot bind them to your belief-space. However, you can bind memory to them.
Memory: For every three additional memory you bind to this schema, you can choose one additional meme to add to your class meme list.

 

AEROBLAST
Classes: Trn Meme [Learnable, Technic]
Activation Time: Standard action
Range: Close (25 feet + 5 feet/2 memory)
Target: One creature
Duration: Instantaneous
Saving Throw: None
Blue Opposition: Yes
Recharge: 6
You produce a sudden, sharp gust of wind that buffets your target.
Make a ranged attack against your target. If you hit, you deal 1d10 wind damage to your target. This effect has a critical threat range of 18-20/x2.
Memory: For every 2 points of memory invested, increase the wind damage by +1d10. For every 4 points of memory invested, increase the critical threat range by 1 point.

 

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.

 

BOOST EXPERIENCE
Classes: Aka Meme [Mind-affecting]
Activation Time: Full-round action
Range: Close (25 feet + 5 feet/memory invested)
Target: One creature
Duration: 1 round
Saving Throw: Will negates
Blue Opposition: Yes
You delve into the Blue, seeking out knowledge relevant to a creature, then imbue it into their personal memory, granting them prowess through experience others have gained.
You grant the target a +1 effective bonus to their class level for a single class, of your choosing at the time of activation, for the duration of this effect. This does not grant the creature additional hit points, base attack bonus increases, or any of the like; for effects that rely on the creature's class level, it is simply considered higher than it actually is.
This effect is considered a status effect.
Memory: For every 2 points of memory you have invested in this meme, increase the duration by one round. For every 3 points of memory invested, increase the bonus granted by +1.
Belief-Space: While this meme is part of your belief-space, you are particularly sensitive to experiences you have. You gain a +1% bonus to XP you gain while this meme is bound.

 

CAUSAL CHAINS
Classes: Aka Meme
Activation Time: Standard action
Range: Close (25 feet + 5 feet/memory invested)
Target: One creature
Duration: 1 round
Saving Throw: Will negates (see text)
Blue Opposition: Yes
You vigorously enforce the powers of causality on a creature, preventing it from enjoying the benefits of - or suffering the penalties imposed by - temporal manipulation.
While this effect lasts, the target's initiative cannot be changed by any effect. If this meme and another effect conflict (such as the lag status), the sources of both effects make Force-user level checks, and the effect with the higher result stays in place while the other is suppressed (that is, the effect's duration continues, but its effect is negated while the winning effect's duration occurs).
This effect does not prevent the normal rules for initiative in Trinity (that is, creatures with higher than a 20 in initiative will go again in that round at -20, and so forth). However, it does prevent other effects from modifying the creature's initiative.
This effect is considered a status effect.
Memory: For every 2 points of memory you have invested in this meme, increase the duration by one round.
Belief-Space: While this meme is part of your belief-space, your connection to causality is considerably strengthened. For every 3 points of memory invested in this meme, you gain a +1 insight bonus on memeticist level checks to counteract initiative-manipulating effects when you use this meme.

 

CONTROL SYSTEM
Classes: Aka Meme [Mind-affecting]
Activation Time: Full-round action
Range: Close (25 feet + 5 feet/memory invested)
Target: See text
Duration: Concentration, up to 1 round/memory
Saving Throw: Will negates (see text)
Blue Opposition: Yes
Your understanding of information gives you the ability to manipulate it and entities that operate by information.
You can temporarily interfere with a creature's information processing, inducing in them a variety of mental states. While you concentrate on this meme, you can continually modify a creature's internal information, causing them to take actions that make sense based upon your falsified data. In effect, you control the target. (A controlled creature has no control over their actions; instead, another creature - the controller - decides how they spend their actions on their turn.) A successful Will save prevents this effect, which you can maintain by concentration for up to 1 round per memory invested.
Memory: For every point of memory you have invested in this meme, increase the max duration of concentration by one round.
Belief-Space: While this meme is part of your belief-space, you gain a greater control over the information in your own mind, granting you metacognitive powers. You are always aware of your own mental state, in particular when you are suffering from a mental status effect (such as confusion or controlled), and gain a +1 insight bonus to Sense Motive checks per two memory invested.

 

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.
Make an attack roll with a bite attack, and deal damage normally, with an additional +1d8 shadow damage. If you do not have a bite attack, you instead deal only the bonus shadow damage. The creature suffers a -2 penalty to all saving throws until your next turn.
A successful saving throw against this effect negates the saving throw penalty and halves the shadow damage.
The penalty to saving throws is considered a status ailment.
Memory: For every 2 points of memory you have invested in this meme, increase the bonus shadow damage by +1d8, and the penalty levied to the creature's saving throws by -1.
