Re: [DF11] Demonology Question
The Demonology modifier includes -5% for sensitivity to supernatural energies and -5% for Nuisance Effect. For most abilities, the latter amounts to distressing appearance . . . because stuff like Detect, Hard to Kill, Resistant, and See Invisible normally have no visible effects. Blasting a 10-yard jet of Hellfire isn't subtle, so that -5% would be a free discount here. For this ability, then, the usual Nuisance Effect is changed from "Your ability earns a reaction penalty from those around you" to "Your ability physically inconveniences you." It's such a severe inconvenience because it does nothing (and once again is basically free) until you seriously reduce your HP and fail a HT roll.
