This is more of a question then a review but can you spend evidence from other cards or just from Alton with the player window action?

Can anyone confirm or refute this idea? Thank you all in advance

"[A]nother instance of one of its skill icons" doesn't have to be one that's relevant to the test, correct? I have a silly idea of using Relic Hunter / Occult Reliquary to pair this with Crystallizer of Dreams.

I want to play an event from hand (dreaming of Blood-Rite in George Barnaby, but any event with pips works), use Crystallizer's discard replacement to tuck Blood-Rite, then commit Blood-Rite from under Crystallizer to the next test I'm likely to fail (or planning to fail with Drawing Thin / Artistic Inspiration / Quick Learner).

Then, I'll exhaust Grisly Totem to add an irrelevant pip, fail the test, and add the event back to hand, to be used again.

Does this work the way I want it to?

Breath of the Sleeper AKA Morning Breath: for my money this and its clue getting counterpart Eyes of the Dreamer are now the best attack and gather spell assets in the game.

When using them and paying the maximum amount of charges the hit rate to find a match is quite high. Obviously this varies a lot depending on the state of your draw bag, but in my experience it is higher than 50%. Filling the bag with blesses or curses will increase the chance of finding a match greatly.

Unless I’m mistaken, even once the 9 charges are depleted from them, they can still continue to be used to at least give your mystic a chance to fight or investigate using their intellect.

Having 9 charges on them also means that these are very useful in combination with Spectral Shield, giving low health mystics an easy way to stay in the game

Notably Jacqueline Fine can supercharge her chances of getting a match on this by drawing an additional 2 tokens

This card looks like a good way to handle situational cards that would be "dead" in your hand otherwise.

Use Cornered to place under George Barnaby your End of the Road or your Pelt Shipment, wait for the end of the scenario and use Grim Resolve to get your card draw, your resource, your action and your experience discount.

Since this came out with the Drowned City, obviously the number one user is Michael McGlen. Spend two bucks, a card, and a play action, and you get a refund on those dollars as long as you find somebody to shoot. Then, spend a resource to do it again twice. With Locked and Loaded, it’s an even better financial proposition: spend $2, earn $1, then earn $2 per reload. But he’s not the only great user.

Rogues are all about actions, and this is a tricky way to get a bonus action for people who want a lot of them. Winnie loves taking tests so she can spend skills. Paired with momentum, this is an easy way to take a potshot, especially with a Pickpocket & Dirty Fighting in play.

This might be the second good gun for Wendy Adams. The Bulldog lets her use agility and succeed. This gun gives her a cheap chance to fail.

It’s also a great flexible card for Ashcan Pete. Instead of always having to give up your upkeep resource to maintain Dark Horse, you can use it flexibly to reload the Luger.

Because you can reload it during off turns, this pistol is extremely flexible. And with investment, it can do strange things. Enchant weapon lets Leo Anderson attack at +9. An excellent sidearm.
