In every city's underbelly there are a few burglars who owe or fear you, and in every high-class salon there's an aunt with a nephew under threat. When you need something unsavory, like identifying a gang tag or purchasing explosives, you always know who to ask and there's a [Template]-in-6 chance they owe you a favor already.
When you attack an opponent after gaining an advantage by hiding or using a maneuver to deceive them you may add 1d6 damage to your attack.
With a week and a coin to the right friends, you can create a foolproof false identity. For example, you might acquire appropriate clothing, letters of introduction, and official-looking certification to establish yourself as a member of a trading house from a remote city so you can insinuate yourself into the company of other wealthy merchants. The effect is perfect; NPCs will genuinely believe your false identity is a real independent person unless they see you don or doff the disguise.
Spend three hours studying someone, their voice, their mannerisms, their stride, their handwriting. Thereafter you can unerringly mimic those things.
In a crowded scene, when your exact position hasn't been established yet, you can declare that any generic NPC was really you in a disguise. If you've copied a named NPC in the scene with Let Me In, you can declare that they are really you in a disguise.
