This is the skill of controlling and
remembering your dreams. A success-
ful skill roll lets you experience vivid
dreams about a subject of your choos-
ing. Use the Fortune-Telling (Dream
Interpretation) skill to interpret your
dreams. In some game worlds, this
might be a useful divinatory technique
(GM’s decision).
A Dreaming roll can also help you
recall a previously forgotten piece of
information, or something you wit-
nessed but did not consciously note.
This technique is much less reliable
than Eidetic Memory (p. 51), though.
The GM will describe your dreams to
you, working clues into the narrative.
It is up to you, the player, to spot these
hints!
Finally, you can use this skill to
combat malign supernatural influ-
ences on your dreams. Resolve this as
a Quick Contest between your
Dreaming skill and your harasser’s
skill at dream control. If you win, you
shut out the external influence.
