Alternate Identity
1 to 5 point Merit
You have established a false persona that stands up to scrutiny and investigation. The quality and detail of this face depends on the number of points invested in the Merit. For one point, your identity is new or intended for casual use only. At two points, it takes determined effort to reveal your ruse. For three points, your false name is known in several cities. At four points, your identity is widely known and respected. For five points, you can even deceive the post paranoid elders. Although the difficulty of any Investigation to determine your true identity equals your Alternate Identity rating + 5, it is up to you to actively maintain your persona. Characters with more than one false face must purchase this Merit multiple times.
