The Impact of ST and HT 0
So, let us say that I have a character with the following ability: Dirge of Infirmity. Dirge of Infirmity is Affliction 1 (Attribute Penalty, ST-10 and HT-10, +100%; Cone, 20 yards, +250%; Extended Duration, Permanent, Until target's next birthday, +150%; Malediction 3, +200%; Sense-Base, Hearing, -20%; Selective Area, +20%) [80]. On a successful contest of Will versus HT, the character reduces the ST and HT of any target he or she chooses that can hear him or her by 10 until the target's next birthday.
What is the consequence of reducing targets to 0-4 ST and 0-4 HT for an average of six months (assuming that the targets have an average ST and HT between 10 to 14)? Would targets be functional with such low ST and HT or would they have to be the Boy in the Plastic Bubble? Would PCs so afflicted be functional, or would they be effectively disabled for an average of six months? |

Re: The Impact of ST and HT 0
Since the effect is 'permanent' (even if it does fade with the target's next birthday), would we recalculate secondary characteristics as per Campaigns (p. 421)? Would a character with ST 0-4 and HT 0-4 for six months suffer from withering on their HP and FP?
