Talents:

• Coordinator: Shirley has a knack for getting people to work together. When she can spend a full round directing his or her allies and makes a Charisma check (DC 10), she provides any of his or her allies within 30 feet a +1 bonus on their attack rolls and skill checks. The bonus lasts for a number of rounds equal to the Shirley’s Charisma modifier. She can coordinate a number of allies equal to half of her scholar level, rounded down (to a minimum of one ally).
• Planer: By using stored knowledge plus information of a task before her, Shirley may develop a plan to handle a dramatic situation. This requires preparation, and can not be used if caught by surprise or otherwise unknowledgeable about the situation. By making an appropriate Knowledge check (DC 15), she provide herself and her allies with one reroll to all relevant skill checks if the check is successfull and for every five points in excess of the DC. She may not take a 10 or a 20 on this check. Only one plan can be in effect. The effects of this ability last for up to one story. If she choose to reroll a check or attack roll, the result of the reroll must be accepted even if it is worse.
• Insight: Shirley may choose to reroll any Sense Motive, but the result of the reroll must be accepted even if it is worse.
• Deeper Insight: Shirley can make a Sense Motive check against the Will Defence of the target to find out if something is not right with the target. The information is less vague like the standard application of Sense Motive. Accordingly to the success on the test you can ask her, Player or Stablemaster, a question for all 5 successes over the Will Defence. She has to answer truthfully and in detail but the question has to be related to a Problem the target has. Shirley can use this talent only once per scene

Feats:

• Recall: Once per day, Shirley can reroll any check for a Knowledge skill that she is trained in, using the better result.
• Skill Focus Sense Motive: Shirley gain a +5 competence bonus on Sense Motive.
