A demon’s Celestial Name is difficulty 7. A True Name is difficulty 6. The amount of detail gained depends on the number of successes rolled. One success provides only a visual image of the immediate area around the subject. Two successes expand the visual sphere out from the subject to a distance in yards equal to the Scourge’s Faith score. Three successes adds audio; the demon can hear the subject’s voice, but no one else. Four or more successes allow the Scourge to hear everything that occurs around the subject. This evocation lasts a number of turns equal to your character’s permanent Faith score, or the connection can be broken voluntarily at any point. \\ | **System:** Roll Perception + Empathy.
