Abilities
Cataracts — Old Matsuki's deteriorating eyesight imposes a –2 circumstance penalty to vision-based Perception checks.
Wood-Grain Speaker — Old Matsuki gains a +2 circumstance bonus to Perception when examining wood items, structures, and trees. He can use Crafting to Identify Magic for items primarily made of wood. This ability isn't affected by Old Matsuki's cataracts.
You Know, They Say... — Old Matsuki can use Willowshore Lore in place of Arcana, Medicine, Occultism, or Religion to attempt Recall Knowledge checks with a –2 penalty. He has the effects of the Dubious Knowledge feat for Recall Knowledge checks attempted in this way.
A Drink for Good Luck (emotion, fortune, mental, occult) — Frequency once per season
Requirements Old Matsuki has a drink in hand
Effect Old Matsuki toasts to good fortune, then selects up to six other creatures within 30 feet before he drinks his drink. He, and all creatures that drink before the end of their next turn, become infused with good luck. Once before the end of the current season, each target can reroll a failed saving throw as a free action, taking the second result.

Respect Your Elders! (auditory, emotion, linguistic, mental, occult) — Frequency once per day
Effect Old Matsuki publicly chastises a character he can see and who's within 30 feet for being disrespectful, not just against him or Willowshore's other elders, but against Willowshore's traditions. Whether or not his reprimands are justified, the target of this tirade must attempt a DC 22 Will save.

Success The creature feels a momentary bout of shame, becoming Stupefied 1 for 1 round.
Failure Feelings of shame and doubt nag at the creature, distracting them enough that they become stupefied 1 for 1 hour.
