| You may use Sense Motive to detect that a hidden message is being transmitted via the [[priority:skills:con|Con]] skill. In this case, your Sense Motive check is opposed by the [[priority:skills:con|Con]] check of the character transmitting the message. For each piece of information relating to the message that you are missing, you take a –2 penalty on your Sense Motive check. If you succeed by 4 or less, you know that something hidden is being communicated, but you can’t learn anything specific about its content. If you beat the DC by 5 or more, you intercept and understand the message. If you fail by 4 or less, you don’t detect any hidden communication. If you fail by 5 or more, you might infer false information. | You may use Sense Motive to detect that a hidden message is being transmitted via the [[priority:skills:con|Con]] skill.

| | ==== Assess Target ==== |
| | As a Swift Action you may Assess a target you can perceive. If you meet the DC you may acquire some basic information about your target such as overall danger the target imposes. For every 5 you exceed the DC by you gain more information. You can ask about a single weakness the creature possesses, a special attack, a statistic compared to your own (response is more, less or equal to). |
| | |
| | The DC is set by the target and is equal to 10 + Con skill Bonus of the target. |
