The Eleventh Question
Legacy: X; Attainments: 1st — X, 2nd — X, 3rd — X
- The Unobvious Answer
Also known as “Sherlock Holmes’ party trick,” the Question simply looks at a subject or location for a round. By examining the subject for physical clues using Matter to instantly identify various infinitesimal traces of mud or stains, and then using Time to gaze backwards along the objects’ timelines, the Question is able to deduce seemingly impossible facts about the subject. Roll Intelligence + Investigation + Time.
Dramatic Failure: The Question’s interpretation of the target is completely inaccurate, not just failing to provide information, but specifi cally misinforming the mage.
Failure: The Question fails to gather any useful information from the subject’s appearance.
Success: The mage learns basic facts about the target’s life, as well as specific facts about the subject’s recent activities, up to the previous 24 hours.
Exceptional Success: The mage knows intimate details of the subject’s life, including secrets no other person knows. In particular, the mage is able to reconstruct the subject’s activities for the past 72 hours.
Optional Arcanum: Mind 1 or Death 1
If the mage also knows Mind 1, the Question can also ascertain emotional cues, akin to the Mage 1 “Aura Perception” spell. He also can combine the Attainment with the Death 1 spell “Forensic Gaze,” when using the ability on a corpse.
Fighting Style: Combat Marksmanship
Effect: Your character is not only proficient with firearms,
but has trained extensively to maintain her accuracy
in the stress of combat (see “Marksmanship in Combat,”
p. 51, for a discussion of these challenges). She most likely
has experience in law enforcement or the military, though
she may simply be a self-defense advocate or a dedicated
hobbyist with uncommon self-possession.
Dots purchased in this Merit allow access to special
combat maneuvers. Each maneuver is a prerequisite for
the next. So, your character can’t have “Tactical Reload”
until she has “Shoot First.” The maneuvers and their effects
are described below, most of which are based on the
Firearms Skill.
Shoot First (•): Your character’s trained reflexes
give her a split-second edge in a gunfight. Whenever
she begins a combat with a firearm already in her hand,
she gains a bonus to her Initiative roll equal to her
Firearms Skill. If she also has the Quick Draw Merit for
firearms (see the World of Darkness Rulebook, p. 113)
and draws a firearm during the first turn of combat, this
bonus is added retroactively, starting at the beginning
of the second turn of combat.
Tactical Reload (••): Your character’s muscle
memory enables her to reload without conscious
thought. Once per turn, she may reload a firearm that
feeds from a detachable magazine or use a speedloader
to reload a revolver, as a reflexive action.
Double Tap (•••): When using a lever-action,
pump-action or semi-automatic firearm, your character
may make short burst attacks as if her gun were capable
of autofire.
Bayonet Range (••••):Your character can maintain
accuracy and control even when facing an opponent
at arm’s length. The target’s Defense does not
apply to firearm attacks your character makes within
close-combat range (see p. 155, the World of Darkness
Rulebook).
Rapid Fire (•••••): Your character’s concentration is
such that she can unleash a hail of bullets. In a single action,
she may make one extra Firearms attack for each point by
which her Composure exceeds 2. Each extra attack is made
at a cumulative –1 modifier. Thus, she can perform a total of
two attacks at Composure 3 (the second of which is at –1),
three attacks at Composure 4 (the third of which is at –2) and
four at Composure 5 (the fourth of which is at –3). She must
declare the targets of all attacks before rolling the first one.
Each attack not directed against her initial target suffers an
additional –1 penalty. All attacks made with this maneuver
must be single shots. Drawback: Your character cannot use
her Defense against any attack in the same turn in which
she intends to use this maneuver. If she uses Defense against
attacks that occur earlier in the Initiative roster, before she
can perform this maneuver, she cannot use Rapid Fire this
turn. In addition, your character may not use this maneuver
with bolt-action or break-action firearms.
