Abilities
+4 to Notice Lies or Sense Motive — +29 to notice lies and Sense Motive
Ear for Lies — Nkiruka's training allows her to recognize microexpressions, voice tone, and other tells. When a creature fails to Lie to Nkiruka, not only does she know they were lying, she also receives a clue about what that creature believes to be the truth.
Group Impression — When Nkiruka Makes an Impression, she can compare her Diplomacy check result to the Will DCs of up to four targets instead of one.
Eye for an Opening — Nkiruka's Strikes against creatures she observes that don't have cover and aren't Concealed deal an additional 2d10 precision damage.
Size Up — Nkiruka attempts a Perception check against the Deception DC or Will DC, whichever is higher, of a creature she can see. On a success, she gleans a notable detail about the creature as if she had successfully Recalled Knowledge about it. Once Nkiruka has Sized Up a creature, she can't do so again for 1 day.
