Definition

A social skill that is all about the ability lead others into a false impression of the way things are, usually through some sort of misdirection.

Deceive (main-action or longer)

The default aspect is from your mind where you make a Deceive check to effectively misdirect someone:

  • By lying outright or by omission, sprinkling lies within otherwise truthful statements.
  • By manipulating people's cognitive biases. The result of your roll then becomes the target SC by an opposed Insight check, made by the target of your Deceive.
