Cost: Imbue 1 Legend

Duration: One scene

Subject: Self

Action: Simple

Ask the Storyguide one of the following questions: 

  • What is the best way to provoke a fight (not necessarily lethal, but definitely ugly) in the current scene?
  • What’s the best way out of (or into) this room?
  • Where should I look to find a tactical advantage? (e.g. a shotgun beneath the bar, corridors too narrow for a full security squad to move through, a war God’s blessed altar)
  • What should I be on the lookout for?

Following the Storyguide’s answer grants Enhancement 3 on applicable rolls. This never directly benefits attack or defense — if the Storyguide told you about a machine gun hidden in the scene, you would get an Enhancement to find it and get it, but not to shoot with it.
