Listen to This

(Complete Scoundrel, page 87, DnD 3.5)

[Mental, Skill Trick]

You can perfectly repeat to others what you hear.

Prerequisite

Listen 5 ranks

Benefit

Whenever you make a successful Listen check to hear a noise, you can describe that sound any time up to 1 hour later with such clarity that any individuals hearing the description are treated as if they had heard the sound themselves. This trick is particularly useful if you overhear a conversation but don't understand the language spoken, since it allows you to repeat it verbatim to an ally who might be able to translate.
