'''Prerequisite:''' [[Envoy#Calm Appeal|Calm Appeal]]<br>
'''Activation:''' Always Active<br>
''With a severe stare, you crack the resolve of all but the most composed adversaries.''
To resist your influence, a character must spend additional focus equal to your tier.<br>
'''Leads to:''' [[Envoy#Peaceful Solution|Peaceful Solution]]<br>
=== Calm Appeal ===
Prerequisite: [[Envoy#Press the Issue|Press the Issue]]<br>
Activation: ★
You draw on your enemy’s innate desire to live and
continue pursuing their goals. Sowing seeds of doubt, you
encourage them to reach a compromise.
When your Steadfast Challenge makes a character
Disoriented, you can spend 1 focus to also pacify them
until the end of this scene. A pacified character makes
no attacks or similar hostile actions without
provocation. However, if you or your ally attacks them
or similarly acts hostilely, or if one of their allies suffers
an injury or dies, the pacified character ceases to be
pacified.<br>
Additionally, after a target resists the influence of your
Steadfast Challenge, they lose additional focus equal to
your ranks in Discipline.<br>
'''Leads to:''' [[Envoy#Baleful (Pactbroker)|Baleful]]<br>

of an agreement.<br>
PEACEFUL SOLUTION
Prerequisite: Persuasion 3+; [[Envoy#Baleful (Pactbroker)|Baleful]]<br>
Activation: ▷
The best battle is one you don’t have to fight. If your calm
appeals meet willing hearts, you’d rather end the conflict
peacefully.
In combat, if all non-minion enemies are currently
pacified (such as by Calm Appeal) and all other non-
minion characters agree to cease hostilities, you can
ease tensions. The combat immediately ends and
becomes a conversation.
At the GM’s discretion, you can use this talent in non-
combat scenes.
PRESS THE ISSUE

Activation: ▶▶
Lorem ipsum
Spend 1 focus to make a Persuasion test against the
Spiritual defense of a character you can influence. On a
success, you learn the target’s motivation for being in
the scene. Until the end of the scene, when you make a
test to leverage this motivation against the target, you
can raise the stakes.<br>
'''Leads to:''' [[Envoy#Calm Appeal|Calm Appeal]]<br>

When you acquire this talent, you receive either a
community reward or a spirit pact reward. Work with

this reward.<br>
'''Leads to:''' [[Envoy#Hard Bargain|Hard Bargain]], [[Envoy#Press the Issue|Press the Issue]]<br>
STEADFAST CHALLENGE
Prerequisite: [[Envoy#Rousing Presence (Envoy Key)|Rousing Presence key talent]]<br>

You stand firm, locking eyes with your opponent and
speaking a challenge with unnerving calm.

Spiritual defense of an enemy you can influence. On a

Lorem ipsum
When you successfully influence a character with a
social test, you can spend 2 focus as ↻ and roll the plot
die as if you were raising the stakes to create an
opening that you can seize upon to gain a small boon.
On [Opportunity], seizing this opening also benefits an
NPC who considers you an ally or produces a setback
for an enemy. On [Complication], seizing this opening
will benefit an enemy or impose a cost on an NPC who
considers you an ally.
The GM will tell you which character(s) will be affected
by your choice to seize the opening. If you choose to
not seize upon the opening, you lose any [Opportunity]
generated by the roll, and your GM can choose how to
spend [Complication].
PLAUSIBLE EXCUSE
Prerequisite: Deception 1+; [[Envoy#Risky Behavior|Risky Behavior]]<br>
Activation: ↻
Years of covert operations have taught you to dissemble on
the spot, concocting a reasonable excuse for the most
incriminating behavior.
After you’re discovered while hiding or otherwise
skulking about, you can use this reaction and spend 2
focus to pass yourself off as doing something innocent.
You influence each character who can sense you to
believe your excuse.
A character can resist this influence, but after they do,
they lose additional focus equal to your ranks in
Deception.
Additionally, when you acquire this talent, gain a utility
expertise in Sleight of Hand.<br>

potential source of conflict, then make a Deception test
(DC equals highest Spiritual defense among those
targets). On a success, you influence each target to
become hostile to the other targets, which sparks an
argument, combat, or other conflict until they find a
way to resolve it.
