Dragon's Mountain - Technique

j A Dream Painter


Rank: 3

Activation: As a Scheme action, you may make a TN 3 Theology (Air) check targeting one Unconscious NPC at range 0–3.

Effect: If you succeed, you scry into your target’s subconscious. You discover one piece of relevant information that they know and that you did not already know, determined by the GM. This might be their ninjō, their giri, their biggest fear, their opinion of one person of your choice, or the most pressing issue that is currently on their mind. If you fail, the target wakes up and is aware you were meddling with their thoughts. Their reaction to this is subject to GM discretion.

New Opportunities


Air L: You cause terrible dreams for the target. They suffer the Exhausted condition when they wake.

Air LL: If you succeed, you plant sweet thoughts into the target’s mind. The target wakes up in a good mood. All characters reduce the TN of their Social skill checks targeting the target by 1 (to a minimum of 1) for the next scene in which the NPC is a participant.

Air LL: If you succeed, you may whisper up to six words into the target’s mind to try to sway their waking actions.

Air LL: If you fail, the target stirs but does not wake up.
