Information:

Prophecy dreams come to Changelings only infrequently. However, some Changelings possess particularly strong connections to the Wyrd (i.e., those with the [[Visionary Dreams]] Merit) can call upon this gift more frequently. Other Changelings aren't so lucky and have to rely on other divinatory methods. This Merit represents your Changeling’s ensorcellment of one, or more Mortals, with a high level of psychic sensitivity. They have no special powers of their own (unless you buy the [[Retainer]] Merit for them), but they have clairvoyant dreams fairly frequently and, thanks to your Pledge of Horn and Bone, you can ride their dreams and witness these visions yourself. Once per story per dot you possess in the Prophet Circle Merit, you may dream ride one of your Oathbound psychics and receive a vision that grants supernatural insight about a question or topic. This question may be about the future, past or present. The prophets you have Oathbound are assumed to be pledged to a token, so they don’t count toward your maximum number of vows. As with the [[Contacts]] Merit, the Storyteller is encouraged to flesh out these prophets as characters and use them as story hooks. You must spend a point of Glamour to “jump-start” the psychic vision, and roll '''[[Pool::Wits]] + [[Pool::Occult Skill|Occult]]''' to interpret it. The results are as follows: * Dramatic Failure: A nightmare. You can interpret it any way you want, but it probably leads to more trouble than solutions. * Failure: Just meaningless images. * Success: One or more clues (one per Prophet Circle dot), although they must be interpreted. * Exceptional Success: One or more clues (one per Prophet Circle dot), and a suggestion about their interpretation provided by the Storyteller. NB: The information conveyed is hidden behind allegory, symbols and archetypes. The dreams rarely answer questions directly but convey meaning through symbolism and imagery. A Changeling seeking a specific person’s location wouldn’t see his address, but landmarks nearby could lead the way. {{Links|Retainer}}{{characteristics}}
