===Deathvoice=== Clairsentience [Language Dependent]<br> '''Level:''' Medium 2, Seer 3<br> '''Display:''' Olfactory<br> '''Manifesting Time:''' 10 minutes<br> '''Range:''' Touch<br> '''Target:''' One touched dead creature<br> '''Duration:''' 1 minute/level<br> '''Saving Throw:''' None<br> '''Power Resistance:''' Yes<br> '''Power Points:''' Medium 3, Seer 5 You grant the semblance of life and intellect to a corpse, allowing it to answer several questions that you put to it. You may ask one question per two manifester levels. Unasked questions are wasted if the duration expires. The corpse's knowledge is limited to what the creature knew during life, including the languages it spoke (if any). Answers are usually brief, cryptic, or repetitive. If the corpse has been subject to ''deathvoice'' or ''speak with dead'' within the past week, the new manifestation fails. You can manifest this power on a corpse that has been deceased for any amount of time, but the body must be mostly intact to be able to respond. A damaged corpse may be able to give partial answers or partially correct answers, but it must at least have a mouth in order to speak at all. This power does not let you actually speak to the person (whose soul has departed). It instead draws on the imprinted knowledge stored in the corpse. The partially animated body retains the imprint of the soul that once inhabited it, and thus it can speak with all the knowledge that the creature had while alive. The corpse, however, cannot learn new information. Indeed, it can't even remember being questioned. This power does not affect a corpse that has been turned into an undead creature. ''Augment:'' If you are a medium, you may augment this power to expand who it may affect in any of the following ways: #If you spend four additional power points, this power can affect undead creatures, including incorporeal ones. Despite the use of this power, an undead creature may not be inclined to discuss any topic with you. #If you spend six additional power points, this power can actually communicate with the soul of the departed creature--rather than their corpse--as well as able to communicate with undead creatures.
