The Nuwisha

using this Gift spreads the seeds of doubt between trusted allies. After all, close friends and lovers know just where to stick a dagger to make sure it really hurts. A snake-spirit teaches this Gift.

System: The player names a victim and rolls Ma­ nipulation + Subterfuge (difficulty 6). At some point in the next 24 hours the victim will suddenly suspect betrayal by one of his closest allies. While the Gift provides no rational reason, most people don’t have to look far to find a reason to fear their allies. The Nuwisha may spend a point of Gnosis when making the roll, and name two victims. Over the next 24 hours one of them will suspect betrayal by the other. The Nuwisha has no control over which will become suspicious, but he may use this Gift twice and name the two victims in reverse order to ensure they will each start to distrust the other.
