# Description You have spent your preparation time speaking with nameless NPCs in unlikely areas to make valuable friendships, connections, or possible valuable bribes. You may spend 2 Preparation points to recall an encounter you have had with an NPC at an earlier date and roleplay to see how it went. Depending on the outcome, you may find allies in unsuspecting places. Someone may be willing to lie on your behalf or fight on your side, or you may create a new enemy that wants to see you suffer.
