Perhaps you simply have a deep and abiding fearlessness of fire and the inherent knowledge that your death will not come from that element.

Five successes enable you to recall an event perfectly: The Storyteller relates to you exactly what was seen or heard. Something was strange, however—you didn't seem to be growing or getting older. You are touched with a vestige of the immortality that used to be the birthright of all fae.
