Infernal Sorcery

The caster entreats demons to answer his quesitons, revealing secret knowledge or unearthing mysteries. Most demons are not omniscient, however, and this ritual's effectiveness is limited by the demon's knowledge. This ritual has no visible effect, but individuals with Auspex sometimes claim to have seen imps or homunculi whispering into a thaumaturge's ear. The caster must break a dried bone in two for this ritual to take effect.
System: The number of successes accumulated on the roll determins the extent of the information the demon must reveal. The caster may ask only one question of the demon, but he may cast this ritual as many times as he wants.
