Never-ending Echo Inquiry
Cost: 5m, 1w; Mins: Investigation: 5, Essence 4; Type: Simple
Keywords: Combo-Ok, Emotion, Social; Duration: indefinite
Prerequisite Charms: Irresistible Questioning Technique

This charm asks a single burning question of the target, who is driven to distraction until he answers. The Exalt asks a question, and makes an Investigation social attack. Intimacy, Virtue, and Motivation effects are doubled on this attack. Success instills an intimacy towards answering this question, which lasts until one of the following conditions are met:

• • The target has answered the question to the best of his ability
  • The Solar chooses to release the essence committed to this charm
  • The target breaks the intimacy naturally.

So long as this intimacy exists, the target is haunted by the question, and does not receive any rest from sleep. This includes both sleep deprivation (core p.129), as well as denying conviction rolls to restore willpower. The target may spend one willpower during a night of attempted sleep; this counts as a scene dedicated towards breaking the intimacy.
