It’s Happening Again: You recall a cold case that bears an eerie resemblance to the scene.

(Low essence, Mid cooldown)
Pitch a historical crime, case, or other event that bears an uncanny resemblance to what’s currently happening.

You may make a free Deduction based on details that you discover at the current scene which are congruent with your Pitched event.
On success, you may receive an Insight about the scene that you may have otherwise missed.

Paired Action: Briefly describe another crime, case, or event and the coinciding details with the current scene. E.g. “This is exactly like the Davenport disappearances, 10 years ago…”

Slip Through The Cracks: Expertly slip into and briefly through a restricted area, bypassing both mundane and supernatural detection.

(Mid essence, Low duration, Mid cooldown)
You must Pitch the various ways in which you evade security or gain entry.
While active you are subtly ignored by all forms of surveillance.
Directly interacting with anyone for more than a moment or causing any kind of disturbance will cause the ability to end prematurely.

Paired Action: Time your approach carefully, observing the gaps in security, waiting for just the right moment before making your move.

Red String Theory: You make an outlandish connection between several elements – that somehow turns out to be true.

(Low-High essence, Low-High cooldown)

Pitch a connection between two or more elements of the mission. Conduit is encouraged to give Insights that suggest additional connections. You may repeat this once or twice, scaling cost/cooldown.

You must explain your theory out loud to someone and it must be based on evidence.

Paired Action: Describe the available evidence aloud while gesticulating wildly, then plausibly connect seemingly unrelated things.

Agent’s Fieldcoat: a long black coat granting some environmental protection. While worn, law enforcement and other authority figures are more willing to work with you.

Flashlight: a heavy-duty one-handed flashlight, sturdy enough to be used as a baton. May reveal traces of supernatural activity (visible to anyone nearby).

Neuralyzer: a pen-sized chrome cylinder. Activate to emit a flash that renders up to three targets compliant for Low duration. Targets must be nearby, non-aggressive, and sentient. (Mid Cooldown)
Elective

Frequency Analyzer: a handheld gadget that picks up on various frequencies. Allows you to detect a Pitched source of communication you could not otherwise detect (magical, technological, or otherwise). May grant Insights about the discovered frequencies.

Voice Recorder: a compact but outdated voice recorder. Record and replay audio. On playback, you may Pitch something having been recorded that wasn’t heard at the time. Effectiveness of the Pitch scales with how strange/garbled/otherworldly the recording sounds.

ID Badge: a plastic ID badge with your face and name. You may update the credentials it provides via Pitch, credentials you have seen are easier to copy. (Low cooldown)
