Keen Hearing
AirTipos PhysicalMentalDescrição
Kakita Toshimoko crept silently across the darkened bedchamber, bearing his katana in one hand. With the other, he reached out and gently shook the sleeping form of Doji Hotaru, the Crane Clan Champion. Immediately, she was awake and reaching for the blade at her bedside.
Toshimoko quickly raised his finger to his lips, bidding her to keep silent. She nodded, and rose from the bed, drawing her sword. Toshimoko leaned forward, so that Hotaru alone could hear him whisper.
“The castle has been breached.” He cocked his head slightly. “Five, clothed lightly, on the roof.” He moved his head slowly, focusing on sounds that only he could hear. “One of them is carrying a kusari-gama. Its chain rattles slightly.”
“Shinobi,” Hotaru breathed.
Efeitos
The following apply to a character with the Keen Hearing distinction:
You can hear noises that others do not detect, and you can assess your environment by sound alone. Even in darkness, you can accurately pinpoint the location of people and other moving objects in your immediate vicinity.
When performing a check for which you need to hear soft, distant, or subtle noises (such as a Courtesy [Air] check to eavesdrop at a distance where you are not noticed or a Survival [Air] check to listen to an animal’s movement before springing a trap), you may reroll up to two dice.
