Poised
Teachable by Jane Romero
Completing a Generator hides your Scratch Marks, and your first repair reveals the Killer's Aura.
Description
"Achieving goals boosts your confidence."
Whenever a Generator is completed, Poised triggers its primary effect:
- Suppresses the creation of your Scratch Marks for 20/25/30 seconds.
Whenever you start repairing a Generator for the first time, Poised triggers its secondary effect:
- The Aura of the Killer is revealed to you for 8 seconds.
"Ok, stay calm. Don't overthink it and just keep moving forward: you got this." — Jane Romero
