+2 Status To All Saves Vs. OccultDiplomatic Solution
(emotion, incapacitation, mental, occult)Trigger The dragon rolls initiative
Effect The dragon targets all enemies it can see within 60 feet with Calm heightened to a rank equal to half the dragon's level rounded up (DC 23 will save). The dragon doesn't need to Sustain this effect, but if the dragon takes any hostile action against those affected, it breaks the effect for all creatures.
Distracting Whisper

Effect A mysterious voice whispers something disconcerting in the triggering creature's ear, inflicting a –2 circumstance penalty to the triggering attack.

(mental, occult)The dragon unleashes a befuddling miasma, dealing 6d6 mental damage in a 30-foot cone (DC 25 will save). A creature that fails its save is Stupefied 1 (Stupefied 2 on a critical failure) for 1 minute. The dragon can't use Cogitation Breath again for 1d4 rounds.
Steal Knowledge
(concentrate, mental, occult)The dragon plucks a fragment of knowledge from the mind of a creature within 60 feet, choosing a skill to affect. The creature must attempt a DC 23 will save.
Success The creature is unaffected.
Failure For the next minute, the creature takes a –1 status penalty to checks using that skill, and the dragon gets a +1 status bonus to using that skill.

Whisper dragons are keen collectors of rumors and secrets who spend centuries honing their information networks and relationships. They generally do so not out of an intent to hold the information over others or to use for their own machinations, but simply because the process of learning and gathering information is fulfilling. Their hoards are sparse compared to those of other dragons, as they hold their true treasures—secrets—in their minds.
