The Sign of Truth

Effect

Believed to be truth incarnate or a loose application of the concepts. This sign is a godsend to any detective or policeman since the sign allows the bearer to read people easier, detect lies and read a room or a crime scene (in turn, making any metaphorical puzzle easier to complete). Outside of it's law applications, it also allows to detect kinks in machinery, code or most fabrics

Side/Secondary Effects

Do not give this sign to a delusional person! It is know that a side effect of this sign is that the bearer can't lie to themselves. Granted they will see both the positive and negative aspects of themselves and how the bearer deals with this is up to them. But the sign has a habit of rattling those with issues of delusion and inflated egos.
