Repository of Knowledge

MINOR GIFT

Traits: divination, mental

Your relic is imbued with the psychic impressions of ages past. While the relic is on your person, you are trained in 3 additional Lore skills of the GM’s choice that fit the relic’s history, decided at the time of gaining this gift. If the relic is 9th level, you instead have expert proficiency in these Lore skills, and if the relic is 17th level, you have master proficiency in these Lore skills.

Perception Filter

MAJOR GIFT

Traits: divination, mental

Aspect mind

Activate ◆◆ envision; Frequency once per day; Effect Your relic reaches into the minds of nearby creatures and blocks your presence from their perceptions. For the next 10 minutes, a creature that enters a 120-foot-radius emanation, centered on you, must attempt a secret Will save, after which the creature is then temporarily immune for 1 day.

Critical Success The creature is unaffected.

Success The creature takes a –2 status penalty to Perception checks to Seek or otherwise detect you.

Failure You filter all of the creature’s senses, making it difficult for it to notice you. When you are hidden or undetected from the creature, it doesn’t observe you as soon as you do anything other than Hide, Sneak, or Step. If it rolls a Perception check to Seek or otherwise detect you, it gets the outcome one degree of success worse than what it rolled, and if you roll a Stealth check to Hide, Sneak, or otherwise escape its attention, you get the outcome one degree of success better than what you rolled against the creature. If you use a hostile action toward the creature, the effect ends for that creature after your hostile action is completed.

Critical Failure As failure, but the effect doesn’t end for that creature if you use a hostile action against it.

Psychic Scream Major Gift

Traits: divination, mental

Aspect mind

Activate ◆◆ envision; Effect Your thoughts build before spilling forth in a powerful telepathic scream. Enemies within a 20-foot-radius burst centered on you must attempt a basic Will save or take 1d10 mental damage for every 2 levels of the relic. On a critical failure, they are also stupefied 1 for 1 minute.

Mental Bastion

GRAND GIFT

Traits: mental

Your relic takes over some of your mental processes and enhances others. You gain telepathy; if you already have telepathy, you instead increase its range by 30 feet. Whenever you would become stupefied, reduce the value by 1.
