Nyaka/Necromancy/Communicate with Undead/Other Side

Voices From The Other Side
Allows casters to speak and hear dead people in the underworld. This requires a ritual (normally a seance) in which the caster uses one or several foci to link themselves to an entity from the underworld. The Foci may be a blood relative or a person with a very close relationship to the target (as a wife), a well-used or beloved object owned by the person, or part of the dead person's body. The caster gets a bonus on the roll if several foci are used (+1 per extra foci, up to +5). The Difficulty is equal to the target's Magic Resistance+10. If successful, the caster may ask the target questions and get answers through a ouija-board or similar tools. This in no way forces the target to respond or tell the truth.


 * 1 Raise: The target can answer the caster through physical manifestations like writing
 * 2 Raises: The target can now answer through possession of the medium, answering questions from foci within earshot.
 * 3 Raises: As 2, but the target now answers questions from anyone within earshot.
 * 4 Raises: The target answers through a voice heard by everyone within earshot, and causes minor effects. The target may answer questions from all within earshot.

There is small risk that something else but the intended target answers (on a botch). Replace the normal values on the fumble table with appropriate alternatives (examples include other deceased, demons, spirits, gods or unspeakable weird things). The caster may also be possessed.
