Not exactly chummer, that's sort of how it works if you take the rules at
face, ie, just add to the power level of the attack (what's the power of
a water pistol, etc).

People with extreme allergies to a substance actually take daamge if exposed
to it, over enough time, I figure something like (Body)minutes for an automatic
light wound (wasn't that in the rules somewhere?). A vulnerability is worse
than an extreme allergy so..

For a water pistol, figure hold-out damage and although you can't stage
that damage up, the fire elemental might no be able to stage all your
successes down (ie. you get 6 and he only gets 4, you still only o a light,
gee, how much damage did'ja you think the thing could do?).

Figure light pistol damage for one of those big, powerful SMG sized things.


Ares Squirt guns don't actually use pure water in them (?), so it's possible
that a fire elemental wouldn;t acutally take any damage from DMSO (?)
