Fair enough. Wouldn't want to contradict Kromm. As I said, it's been a while since I read the rules, and I obviously house-ruled it at some point in my distant past.
Although it might create an odd situation if the GM has already made a secret Reaction roll for his own reason and then forbids the player from attempting an Influence roll.
