Contacts

Contacts is the skill of knowing and making connections with people. It presumes proficiency with all means of networking available in the setting.

You use Contacts to finding someone you need to find. Whether that’s old-fashioned “man on the street” type of work, polling your information network, or searching archives, you’re able to hunt down people or somehow get access to them.

Ear to the Ground

Whenever someone initiates a conflict against you in an area where you’ve built a network of contacts, you use Contacts instead of Notice to determine turn order, because you got tipped off in time.
