About The Pull Request

Allows for Auspex Telepathy to 'implant thoughts' with a disguised voice or not depending on a roll.
Actually adds a roll to Telepathy
Adds functionality for Auspex Telepathy to read the mind of the target at a 1 willpower cost against other supernaturals (kindred and garou as the book is clear its often used to control mortal servants, meaning ghouls dont fit our current issupernatural() for this job)

Might rework Spirits Touch too to not just scan for fingerprints and fibers, but actually make a roll to determine who was the last person to handle the object, with four successes revealing their true name

Why It's Good For The Game

Expanded functionality for Auspex Telepathy, reducing the free private text messaging Telepathy we currently have and the awkward Auspex 4 "Tell them they suck - Chaz" meta of getting around using the whisper feature

Also like... MIND READING? Implanting thoughts. So cool

Changelog

🆑
add: Auspex Telepathy now offers the user to pick between mind reading and implanting thoughts
add: Adds rolls to Telepathy, reducing the free loophole to having to whisper

Do note that based off the rulebook, it still allows kindred to telepathically project their own thoughts, ala our current system.

Ye I got it as a selector, implant thought, and they have to do a seperate roll to successfully 'disguise' the voice, or they can elect to not disguise it, in which case it will say smth like 'you hear the voice of Chaz...' but if u attempt to disguise it and win, u can enter what voice so it will ideally say smth like 'you hear the voice of [user input]' and so u can do like 'you hear the voice of yourself...'
