Gnosis 6

This pack of five sticks of bubblegum has helped many a Kin (most often Bone Gnawer Kin) out of a jam. The Kin activates it by giving a stick a few chews. He then tosses it on the ground. It then winds up on the heel of anyone who is pursuing or following the Kin, even if he didn’t walk directly over it. The pursuer must succeed in a Perception + Alertness roll to notice that he’s got gum sticking to his foot. So long as the gum is stuck to him, he’ll find it harder to catch up to his prey. Passersby will inadvertently block his way, delaying him; cops will stop him to question him; traffic will prevent him crossing the street in time. If he outright tries to run after the Kin, he must roll Dexterity + Athletics not to trip and fall. If he succeeds, the gum’s effect ends. If he fails, the gum keeps working.

This talen is created by binding a rat or cockroach spirit.
