-'''Guile''' is a [[Sage Study|sage study]] in the [[Sage Field|field]] of [[Grace (sage field)|Grace]], describing the skill a character has in deceiving others about the character's intent, integrity, appearance and reason for being.  The study enables the character to adopt a disguise or level of confidence, enabling them to spy where they do not belong and even rise within the hierarchy of organizations to which they do not legitimately belong.  Meanwhile, others will feel inclined to believe the character's words and veracity — and empower the character to move about freely and gain what information and access they need.

 Much of this study preys upon the gullibility of others, who are easily tricked or manipulated into courses of action.  Thus the sage abilities described below include numerous ways to dupe others and gull them of their respectability, wealth and skepticism, often drawing them into the character's plot so as to make them unknowing participants in their own undoing.
