## 📰 Role Ability: Credibility (Rank 4)

Your role ability makes you a **journalist who fights with information**. You gather rumors, investigate stories, and publish exposés.

### 📡 Rumors (Passive)

At least **twice per week**, the GM secretly rolls your Credibility (4) + 1d10 and feeds you rumors based on the result. Higher rolls = juicier intel.

You can also **actively investigate** using Library Search, Conversation, or Interrogation.

### 📝 Publishing Stories

When you have enough info, you can **publish a story**. Your Credibility Rank determines everything:

| What | At Rank 4 |
|------|----------|
| **Who you can access** | Local honchos, gang-lords, neighborhood leaders, city gang bosses, minor politicians, Corp Execs |
| **Your audience** | Well-known contributor for a local Screamsheet or Data Pool |
| **Believability** | 3 in 10 chance audience buys it |
| **Impact** | Direct local effect — bad guys get arrested, justice gets served |

### 📈 Making People Believe

Roll **1d10**. If you roll ≤ your Believability (3), they buy it.

**Bonuses:**
- +1 if you have **at least 1 piece** of verifiable evidence
- +2 if you have **4+ pieces** of hard evidence
- These **stack** — with strong evidence you can reach 6 in 10!

### ⚠️ Rules

- You **can't publish two stories** on the exact same topic unless you have **new info**
- Stories have **real consequences** — the GM decides the impact
