Spy (Skill)

(This page refers to the Between Game Skill Spy, if you're looking for the Header, please go here)

Purchase of this skill represents a Spy's series of informants, resources, and ability to process, move along, and decode information for the various forces for which they do their work.

One purchase of this 5 Character Point Skill gives you 5 Spy Points with which to spread throughout five distinct areas of espionage-related activities.
 * Contact agent -- The ability to ask an agent in a completely different location to do something or find something out, or to carry a message to someone.


 * Counter-spy -- The ability to know when another person is spying on you, and potentially to prevent it.


 * Encrypt/decode -- The ability to code or decode a message, detect the signs of a mage who is working in a given area, understand runes (through contacts who can give basic explanations about them), etc.


 * Gather information -- The ability to gather character profiles, place profiles, or interesting facts, or to intercept other spies' agents, etc.

As with all BSGs, coordination with staff between events is absolutely mandatory, especially due to the broad nature of the skills.
 * Misinformation -- The ability to insert false or fabricated information into game.
