Subject: | Further questions regarding Magic Loss |
Date: | Thu May 24 01:30:01 2001 |
brought up a few questions in my mind in regard to Magic Loss in
general, and how one is supposed to count the Magic Attribute for such
purposes. I am talking in the below solely about full mages and
aspected magicians, BTW, not physical adepts or physical magicians.
A. If a mage has lost Magic (through any means) and has taken
a Geas, does the Geased point of Magic count for purposes
of Magic Loss rolls? I suggest not; otherwise, those who
have chosen against Geasa are the ones furthest from the
way of the burnout, not those who are closest to it.
B. If a mage has lost Magic from bioware, do these Geased
points of Magic count for purposes of Magic Loss rolls? I
don't think so, from the M&M description ("all effective
game purposes"; pg 78).
C. If a mage Initiates and chooses to use a Geas on the gained
point of Magic as an Ordeal, does this point of Magic count
for Magic Loss rolls? I really don't know on this one...
Sorry if people have discussed this before, but if so, I haven't
spotted it in the archives.
Yours,
-Allen
