The Grimoire: Spells (IntellegoMentem)

⮜ All Spells

Frosty Breath of the Spoken Lie Edit

Intellego (In) , Mentem (Me)

Range Eye Duration Concentration Target Individual

Level 20

For as long as you maintain this spell, the target exhales a misty breath with each spoken lie. Small bits of ice form on the person’s lips if the lie is particularly severe. In winter, when breath is visible anyway, lies produce a greater than normal amount of mist (the mist actually billows out). A target who makes a Communication + Guile stress roll of 15+ can determine whether any given statement will be taken by the spell as a lie. The spell can be defeated through extensive and judicious application of Creo Auram and Perdo Auram spells, and a demon is able to manipulate it in any way it wishes, as demons are the embodiment of deception and are never caught in a lie if they do not wish to be. House Guernicus brought the Order this spell, and it is a very poor Quaesitor who is without it. (Base 10, +1 Eye, +1 Conc, mist is a purely cosmetic effect and thus is free)

Posing the Silent Question Edit

Intellego (In) , Mentem (Me)

Range Eye Duration Momentary Target Individual

Level 20

You can ask one silent mental question of the target, then detect the answer. The truth of the answer is limited by the knowledge of the target. Questions to the effect of “What would you do if . . . ?” often receive inaccurate replies. You are likely to get what the target thinks he would do, not necessarily what he would really do. The target of this spell does not notice the questioning unless he or she makes a Magic Resistance roll. (Base 15, +1 Eye)
