This, combined with a disguise kit, can complete the deception, allowing the Charlatan to instantly adopt this created persona. This ability is both used to copy a face and to switch faces. The Charlatan can know any number of faces, but may only prepare a number of them equal to their [Cunning](Cunning.md), [Wit](Wit.md) or [Guile](Guile.md). A face gained during combat can replace one that the Charlatan has not used from his prepared faces, un-preparing that face. This ability cannot give additional uses of these faces in a combat. ### [Social Acumen](Social%20Acumen%20(Charlatan).md) (Level 1) Keywords – *[Mundane](Mundane.md), [Strategy](Strategy.md)* APC - 1 Target - Creature Range - 30ft The Charlatan attempts an ability check against a creature within range. The Charlatan may use [Cunning](Cunning.md), [Wit](Wit.md) or [Guile](Guile.md). The DC of this check is 10 + the creatures CR. If the Charlatan should succeed, they may ask the DM what possible reaction a creature might have to a line of questioning, topic or response to others in the conversation. ### [Prosopagnosia](Prosopagnosia%20(Charlatan).md) (Level 2) Keywords – *[Supernatural](Supernatural.md), [Depower](Depower.md)* Whenever a creature would make a check to remember the Charlatan, see through their disguise or gather clues to their whereabouts, they attempt this roll with a penalty equal to the Charlatan’s [Spirit](Spirit.md). ### [Consume Identity](Consume%20Identity%20(Charlatan).md) (Level 4) Keywords – *[Mundane](Mundane.md), [Empower](Empower.md)* Whenever the Charlatan would be injured, they may instead use one of their stored faces to destroy their current face, expending it. If they do, they are considered defeated until the start of their next turn. At the start of that turn, the Charlatan stands up with no APC. The destroyed face can never be recreated or used again. ### [Word of the Willowisp](Word%20of%20the%20Willowisp%20(Charlatan).md) (Level 5) Keywords – *[Supernatural](Supernatural.md), [Harm](Harm.md), [Afflict](Afflict.md)* APC – 3 Target – Creature whose Face the Charlatan has prepared or stolen in combat Range – 20ft The Charlatan can horrify the creature of whose face they have stolen with their own face. This horrid mirror reflects dark words in the creature’s mind. When used, the Charlatan makes a Deception check. The target takes Psychic damage equal to the total of this check minus 10. ### Name (Level 7) ### Name (Level 8) ### Name (Level 10)
