Grandfather Clock

Description
This looks like any other grandfather clock, but as we all know, looks can be deceiving. Bound to this clock are the character's ancestral spirits. When the clock is activated, by gazing into the face of the clock and rolling your gnosis rating (difficulty 7) (see chart below). The spirits in the clock will then tell the player about his or her past or future. It can also tell the player about his or her ancestor's past (Storyteller's discretion). When the future is told it is not always correct, but there is some truth in lies. This clock can only be activated once a month on the night of the layer's auspice moon. Also this clock will not always tell you what you want to know and the higher the successes the more clarified the message will be. | Time limit
