Moreover, the Social Worker's knowledge of social systems, crisis intervention, and advocacy makes them adept at identifying resources, mediating disputes, or navigating complex social structures. They have an advantage in tasks related to conflict resolution, negotiation, or providing emotional support to others, however, the Social Worker's unwavering dedication to helping others may expose them to emotionally draining situations or put them at odds with individuals who resist change or harbor ill intentions, and their commitment to supporting the vulnerable results in potential difficulties in their own coping abilities, leading to a temporary loss of -1 Sanity Point for the duration of their ability.
