This spell summons a knowledge spirit to assist a willing target with mental activities. The spellcaster taps the willing target’s head and makes a Spellcasting (6) test.
If successful, the spirit coalesces before the target and merges with their head, a faint spark in their eyes and air of serenity belying the spirit’s presence. Any time the target fails a Perception-based test outside of combat, the spirit allows the target a second chance. Any spent resources used for the first test (such as Karma) don't apply to the second, though the character can spend them again if available. If this second test fails, the action fails. The second test isn't compatible with other abilities that grant second tests, such as the Second Chance talent.
The target can sincerely thank the spirit for its assistance as a Standard action, causing the spirit to depart and end the spell early without side effects.
The spirit finds any form of physical exertion, including combat, beneath it and immediately departs if the target engages in such.
If the spell ends early for any other reason, the spellcaster cannot cast this spell again for a full day.
The spellcaster may only have one instance of this spell active at a time.
