[item] Stunt Cycle question

ISNorden · 12-17-2009, 05:43 PM

While designing a Stunt Cycle as a living-artifact NPC*, a question occurred to me that Liber Reliquarum couldn't answer: do standard Stunt Cycles, as described in that book, need fuel? I personally doubt it, since the other celestial-made vehicle described in there (the Nash Rambler car) never runs out of gas. Beth and LR editors, please correct me if I'm wrong!

*Of course, I'm not generous enough with Character Points to let any players buy the Holy Hawg; it'd take real-world months' worth of sessions to get the 30-point cost together!

If I correctly recall the Liber Reliquarum and if I have not hopped universes (it's happened...), I believe that one of the benefits to having a relic device is that it does not consume energy normally. I.e., it doesn't eat batteries, burn fuel, etc.

And if that's not in the Liber R, it's a great house rule.

You do recall correctly:

It took me a minute to find it, but there it is.
