With a 30 point threshold, speaking a Word would rocket the tally right into calamity country, assuming the poor soul started at 0.
Or maybe resorting to the raw force of a Word of Power is calamity enough. |
If you're using Threshold instead of FP, the swapping the two should be fine. So someone using a Word of Power could use Thresh or HP. If you're using Thresh in addition to FP, then you might want Variable Energy Access and/or an enhancement on WoP.
