New perks thread

The old perk thread is beyond my searching skills to find, so here's a new one:

Babel-speech: You can translate and back-translate between just about any two languages. The problem is that your translation is about as good as Babelfish (or other automated translators.) Anyone you try this on will have to roll against IQ. On a critical success, they get exactly what you are saying. On a normal success, they understand the general outline, but nothing more. On a normal failure, they don't understand anything. And on a critical failure you have either conveyed the exact opposite of what you wished for, gravely insulted them, or both.
