You can try to reach beyond the surface thoughts of creatures, and probe deeper against someone's mind.
Once they fail, each subsequent turn you can ask a question that the creature would know as you deeply probe their mind.
A pulse of thought extends outward, slipping past surface noise. Layers unravel—memories stir, secrets tremble. Their mind resists, but the barrier cracks. Each moment pulls deeper, questions forming, answers surfacing before they can be hidden.
