This here is an Opt-In post for Murphy's new power, Deceit, which lets Murphy tell a lie that will be automatically, wholly and completely, believed by whoever he's telling it to. If you know DnD, imagine that he automatically rolls a natural 20 on every bluff check. The power does have to be mentally activated to be used, so it isn't as if everything from his lips has this power. Here's the exact approved wording:

Deceit - Basically, John Murphy rolls a natural 20 on his bluff check, every time. He can walk up to a person, tell them 'I am a grizzly bear', and if he's activating this power, that person will be staring at his very human face and completely believe they're seeing a grizzly bear. It has to be a lie he tells someone directly - they have to be able to at least hear his voice to have it work - and it alters their mental perception, not actually turns him into a grizzly bear or casts any kind of illusion that others would see (unless he's using it on a group of people, but the illusion's still only in those peoples' heads). So, for instance, a security camera would catch him as just John Murphy, rather than a bear. This power will last for up to about an hour or so with 100% accuracy. He'd have to reinforce it with another cast by that point, but it'll start to get wobbly - may not hold, especially with people of particularly keen observation and perception skills, or they may just start going into general confusion rather than knowing for certain what he's telling them is the truth. It'll also start becoming more and more mentally taxing on him to keep it up, so he can't do it for, like, days on end without breaks in between.

As for the aftermath, with NPCs never remember who they saw or what the truth of the moment was - only what Murphy told them - and if it was particularly ridiculous, like "i'm a grizzly bear" they'll just be vaguely confused on what the fuck happened and where the grizzly bear went. For PCs, I'll leave it up to player discretion (and this will, of course, have a permissions post to opt-in) on how much they do or do not remember, and cite that the nanites make the effect of that have hiccups, with the idea that it's supposed to work with them like it does with natives, but not always, so we have wiggle room.

So, a form, because we love forms:

<b>Are you open to Murphy using this power to make your character believe a lie?</b> If yes, answer the next few questions. If no, you're done! Regardless, I'll always warn before using this ability. <b>Does your character have any resistance or blocks for mental shenanigans?</b> <b>Would you like your character to realize they've been tricked after the power wears off, or only remember the lie they believed?</b> You can also swap out which you want to go with per situation, if you prefer. <b>Anything else?:</b> Questions? Suggestions? Funny gifs?
