Disco Elysium: One's A Crowd
PenWielderMagic Studios for Drama
Drama is an Intellect skill in Disco Elysium. Play the actor. Lie and detect lies.
Cool for: Undercover Cops, Thespians of the Stage, Psychopaths
Drama urges you to treat the world as a stage – and on it, to perform. It will enable you to lie, to concoct the most elaborate and wonderful stories; to take on ingenious personas and perform acts of stagecraft in an entertaining amalgam of fourberie and deceit! As well, it enables you to see through would-be actors and their false antics. If they lie, you’ll know. Immediately.
Think of a Shakespearean actor, using thees and thous without a care.
Strange. It's as if people don't believe a cop could be a socialist revolutionary.
His eyes dart from left to right. This man isn't lying, but he *is* hiding something
She isth a laedy most fair and juste!
It's just, "just". Second, I like it, but can you pull a tiny bit back? Remember, we're just talking to the player, emphasize what is needed, but like on the second line, don't go over.
