[QUOTE="Hawk Diesel, post: 7513467, member: 59848"] 1) I believe you are reading RAW incorrectly, or at least too narrowly. The language is actually much more vague than you claim it to be. That doesn't mean your reading is wrong per say, just that it is not the only way. 2) RAI absolutely matters and needs to be taken into account when making any kind of ruling in this game, especially because the designers have included in the core rule books the definitions and usage of RAW, RAI, and RAF. RAI might not physically change the words on the page, but it does change how one might interpret the spirit of the rules and thus how the mechanics would be represented and executed at a partixular game table. I could [I]wield[/I] my breath against an enemy and blow on them. Does that make it an improvised weapon? Can I deal 1d4 with my breathing since it does not resemble a weapon? Should my bad breath be as effective at killing a foe as a dagger? [/QUOTE]
