Deception is the art of misleading and manipulating others through lies, misdirection, and cunning. With this skill, you can attempt to deceive others through verbal or written communication, hiding your true intentions or fabricating false information. Deception can be used to persuade, manipulate, or mislead others, but beware - the more outlandish the lie, the greater the risk of being discovered. A high Deception skill also allows you to detect and resist the deceptions of others, making you a formidable opponent in negotiations, interrogations, and social manipulations.
