Effect
For the rest of the scene, whenever any creature within Near range rolls dice, you see the result 1 Tick before it happens. You may choose to:
- Warn an ally: Grant +1 Roll Bonus to their roll (you called out “Duck!” or “Aim left!”)
- Taunt an enemy: Impose −1 die (Pool Penalty) on their roll (your confidence unnerves them — a Fear effect)
- Do nothing: Conserve your focus
You may only intervene in one roll per Tick.
Steps
+1 additional roll intervention per Tick per Step.
Special
This is the Seer at the card table — not playing the game, but reading every hand. The Talent’s name references the legendary poker hand held by the dead; Seers joke that they’ve already seen that hand too.
