It's possibly the most unbalanced choir attunement in the game.

What are your experiences of it?
Do you use house rules to nerf it, and if so how? Or, alternatively, do you GM sneakily in order to reduce its efficacy?
Do you actually think it's ok as it is (at least, in your interpretation)?
Any funny stories? ("You can't dodge your underwear" cracks me up every time)

On a semi-related note, I've often wondered about some of Jean's attunements, and the way they are modern technology focused. Remote Control and the Elohite choir attunement come specifically to mind off the top of my head. Now, it's very like Jean to keep everything he gives out up to date, and of course he has a technology lead on humans, but it strikes me that at least some of these attunements must have been very different even quite recently.

What was Jean like just a hundred years ago? It's hard to see his Powers packing microcircuitry prior to the lightbulb. Superiors: Jean will hopefully have some answers, when (when, dammit) it arrives, but until then speculation ahoy!
