Re: Rules Help
Quick rules question to tack onto the list:
Numinous Corpus Tail gives "an additional melee attack." My players believe this means "in addition to anything else we want to do this turn, including performing a Song." I always assumed it meant "in addition to another melee attack." Thoughts? |

All the other actions? You could do them so long as you could also do them at the same time as a single ordinary attack ... otherwise, no dice.

In the case of a tail, I would rule it allows you "Attack + Tail" otherwise it's a waste of points. YMMV |

Re: Rules Help
Nah, I'm the evil kind of GM. As far as I'm concerned, if I can't competently read and watch TV at the same time, then they can't use a resonance and attack with a tail simultaneously. Thanks, Beth, JCD, and Rocket Man!

Re: Rules Help
New Question
It seems that the Habbalah have one of the broader skill sets. For example, can they make a person emotionally Trust? It seems that this emotion is a reasonable replacement for both the Belseraphs and Impudites. What is a lie but a trusted statement? What is charm but sudden trust? How would the GMs out there jigger this? |

Any Habbalah with two Ethereal Forces to rub together will be able to parlay this into getting people to befriend it and believe what it says - unless it likes playing the pariah or Cassandra, which I bet many of them do - just like a clever Balseraph or Impudite can exploit their Resonance for sophisticated emotional control. |

Re: Rules Help
What are your thoughts on the efficacy of inspiring 'love' in the victim? Seems a much better fit and works for hours, beating the Charm of Impudites.
