[QUOTE="Black Omega, post: 459979, member: 79"] In a way. Once their taint score reaches 10 they become an NPC wandering relentlessly toward the shadowlands, until they arrive there or are killed. 0 Wisdom won't kill someone, they are simply lost in nightmares, which is close enough to this.:) [B][/B] Not very well. That's why the Rokugan book changed the taint table to go all the way to 90 and changed the effect it had on abilities. The bloodspeaker PrC from Way of the shugenja also gives a bonus to resisting taint when using Maho-tsukai. [B][/B] The limitations on the powers seems pretty well defined. It's up to the GM to decide what powers a PC might start to exhibit. Personally, I'd base it on the PC. A thief might get Unholy Vision or a Samurai might get Blackened Claws. but this is up to the GM, the character doesn't get a menu. [B][/B] Maho-tsukai can use the blood of others as well as their own. Both Rokugan and OA make mention of this, though they differ in degree. [/QUOTE]
