This is like a gigantic plot magnet. You can use it to get a meeting with someone who doesn't know you (smart people tend to be picky with their fixers), hook a mark or make a quick buck by offering your services as a proxy for certain deals. It's a great charm to set up a broader action.

These Charms are all cool, but I have some trouble reading what is requirements and what is just fluff for in some cases. I suppose I'll get used to the 3e expression when the book finally comes.

Very interesting. I expected to see this sort of effect in Integrity. It makes things harder for anyone trying to get their hooks into you, but it's not perfect. Seems highly appropriate for an Essence 2 charm.

Fake Edit:
I REALLY wish they could fix the json.txt posting bug on this forum. It has really discouraged me from posting.
If you want to play Thomas Edison, you'd better be up to the task of carrying all of civilization through the Renaissance and Industrial Revolution, while the Sidereals and Dragon-Blooded are shooting at you.

Guard: "Then why were you going out through the window?"
Night Caste: "The front door is stuck."
All in all, pretty excited about those social Charms. Congrats to the devs.Last edited by Kazorh; 05-23-2014, 05:30 PM.

Another issue with Angle-Tracing Edge a friend pointed out to me: It sounds like it could be interpreted as a perfect attack against targets in full cover
"If used against a target in full cover, unless deemed impossible by the storyteller, the attack finds its mark."
I'm willing to bet this isn't the intent, so the writing there might need to be changed.

I don't think it's unreasonable to expect people to actually read what the Charm does before they use.

I'm just a bit worried on how this could potentially expand the amount of info that the ST (and the players, to a lesser extent) would need to keep track of, in addition to if it is possible for the PC to discover Intimacies that might have been lost before the PC even met the NPC. I suppose this will make quite a bit more sense once the book comes out, and we can read all the details of the system this interacts with, though.
