Lie Detection

**Lie Detection** is a B-grade skill that can be obtained through various ways. As the name suggests, this skill allows the user to detect lies, telling the user is the other's statement is true or a lie. It is unclear if "truth" is distinguished from "lie" based upon whether the speaker of the sentence sincerely believes it to be true/untrue, or if it is based on the absolute truth of the situation. However, it has limits on what falsehoods it can detect. Lie Detection can be nullified by the Poker Face skill.
