5 successes — You receive the same richness of detail as
with four successes, but can also choose your point of view,
following the subject wherever it goes. The duration lasts
until you choose, or are forced by failing a Stamina + Athletics
roll (difficulty 7), to end it. You may also alter your point
of view, enabling you to see through the eyes of your subject,
although you cannot read thoughts or hidden intentions. If
used to view someone or something in the Middle World, you
may gain exact information about supernatural or magical
effects surrounding your focus. You may determine that
someone is changing from one Camp to another, or that he
or she is one of the changing breed or a worker of death magic.
Ancestor Speech
When using Ancestor Speech, you may contact the
spirit of one of your own or your tribe's ancestors. If the
ancestor in question was also Nunnehi, that spirit may not be
contacted unless the Nunnehi's immortal faerie soul was
destroyed; those whose souls were not destroyed have since
manifested in other bodies and are not available for consultation.
Human ancestors of your family line or mortal tribe
may be sought for and questioned. Ancestor spirits may only
answer questions pertaining to, or provide visions of, the past
up to the present moment. They have no knowledge of the
future, or. even what is transpiring at the instant of contact.
They can be asked about events, places, people, customs,
rituals and objects that existed in the past, and can offer
advice when asked for it.
Such counsel is made only with the spirit's own beliefs
and perspectives in mind, never with any supernatural or
inside knowledge of what is to come or what the right course
of action is. Nevertheless, the wisdom of experience and
knowledge of the past can sometimes be quite helpful in
dealing with the present.
Realms: The Realm describes the subject of the cantrip.
Actor — Describes the ancestor chosen for contact.
This may be a specific individual, if known, or a general call
for a willing and helpful ancestor spirit.
Fae — Describes the ancestor chosen for contact in
those instances involving the mortal spirit of a Nunnehi
whose faerie soul has been destroyed. This Realm is also used
to contact spirits of other supernatural creatures.
Nature — Describes the natural thing or animal type
chosen for contact. These natural spirits must have been
associated with an ancestor at one time, such as his companion
spirit or his favorite shade tree. If the individual spirit is not
known, a general type may be selected. Thus, if the ancestor's
actual antelope companion spirit was not available, any antelope
may serve as a spirit conduit. Note: Spirits of animals,
plants and rocks are limited by their own perceptions and world
views in the amount of information they can impart.
