The caster can probe into a target’s mind against their will. Doing so gives the caster access to the target’s Knowledge and the ability to know whether they are telling the truth or a lie. Whenever the caster asks a question of a target then they must perform a Sanity Save against the Spell DC. Otherwise, the caster reads their mind and gains the exact answer they desire regardless of what the target says. If the target passes the Sanity Save then the caster still knows whether they are telling the truth or not but nothing more.
Distracted targets still get a Sanity Save but are unaware of the caster attempting to probe their mind. The only information the caster gets from they get is whatever they are immediately thinking of or talking about, acting as if they are listening into a conversation from a distance. Successfully using this ability also informs the caster of whatever emotions they are feeling such as fear, happiness, sorrow, or anger. The amount of MC required depends on the size of the target.
