Whispers
Your character’s mind has ripped open, allowing tendrils of underlying primordial truths to reach into his psyche. He can purchase the
Dream Merit even if he is not a mage, and may attempt to gain insights through that Merit as an instant action while conscious rather than requiring the usual hour of meditation or sleep. However, each time he accesses Dream in this accelerated manner further erodes his sanity, requiring a character with a
Wisdom (or
Morality) higher than five dots to make a
degeneration roll.
