    Defence score and conditions

    Hi all, I note in the FAQ that defence is a dice pool, and therefore is specifically affected by dice pool caps. So, if I currently have a Condition that gives me (say) an agility penalty, will this also require adjustment to defence values? What about other secondary traits (like speed)...

    First session questions

    Hi, Couple of questions arose during our first full session: 1/ The demonic possession power - how does this work? Triggering it is easy enough, but the consequences are unclear on pg. 268. (I treated it as a persistent Domination/Dominated condition). When it says it uses "all actions" does...

    Spellcasting restrictions and componants

    Just for clarification, the restrictions on spellcasting are as follows: 1/ Must have the right secret, 2/ Must have the right skill at rank 1+, 3/ Must have enough MP to cover the spells MP cost 4/ MAG must >= the spells MP cost excl. deductions (for time, ingredients, etc) (pg. 162), 5/...

    Negative Health and damage

    The rukes for hitting unconscious characters (pg. 140) seem to imply that the damage total is not deducted from an unconscious characters health - is this correct? Does this mean a hit resulting in a low negative score can "protect me" from needing a much higher "emergency healing" difficulty...

    Damage types and critical hits

    Hi all, If a weapon has multiple damage types (say piercing/poison) and scores a critical hit, does the target advance along all applicable tracks, or just one? If the former, do attack with multiple damage types stack where they hit the same condition? (e.g.: with slashing/piercing do I...

    Magic use in WOIN

    Couple of (hopefully) quick magic-related questions for you all: 1/ Pg. 156 says explicitly that anyone can cast spells, but specifies that you need a secret (everyone gets 'self') and a skill. Does this mean that I need 1+ ranks in a magic skill to use it? I ask because normally I don't need a...

    WOIN Dice Pool Caps

    Hi all, In WOIN: When do die pool caps apply? Do I figure stat + skill + equipment, then apply the cap, before adding in circumstantial modifiers to a roll., Or do I also apply circumstantial modifiers (aiming, range, etc) before applying the cap? In the first case I may end up rolling...
