### Random Utterance (Su)
Every round as a free action, amid its garbled babbling, a garbler speaks one word of power. This utterance affects one random target within range. d6Utterance1Defensive edge (reversed)2Morale boost (reversed)3Temporal twist (reversed)4Greater speed of the zephyr (reversed)5Spell rebirth (reversed)6Preternatural clarity (reversed)
### Reverse Utterance (Su)
As an immediate action, a garbler can reverse any utterance from the lexicon of the Evolving Mind that it hears spoken within 60 feet. The target remains the same, but a garbler uses this ability when reversing an utterance would be advantageous to it. Thus, a truespeaker seeking to harm the garbler with a reversed word of nurturing might inadvertently heal it instead. A garbler instinctively knows how best to reverse an utterance and will never reverse a beneficial utterance that targets it.
