Hello all,<br> I'm new and just wanted to say hi. Also, there was a thread going on for a while that talked about stereotypes in WW games. I think the reason ...
As a non-trad SoE myself (being a girl is hard. Trying to build anything small enough to fit in a briefcase is REALLY hard for Team Ether ; ) I think it’s ...
I'd love to kick around game philosophy with you, that's what I was hoping for when I joined this club. I hope you (and others) won't mind if I take your ideas...
I'd like to bounce an idea off a few people that I am toying with, either as a character or the start of a new game.<br><br> I like the Sons of Ether, and I...

Hmm...<br>I'd be worried about mixing Etherian tech and Lovecraft. LIterally, that way lies Madness, and plots more fitting to Wraith ; )<br><br>you pose an...
I didn't mean to mix Lovecraft and Son of Ether, I was just using the Lovecraft Dreamlands as inspiration. I fully intend to have any interaction I do with ...
I can't resist. You both are talking about a humble OoH. I have this concept that I have been thinking about, not so much humble but different from the ...

If the person is entering Maya only through his consciousness (not physically), that is pure Mind, probably Mind 4.<br><br>Alternately, I would allow that to...
Mark, thanks for your ideas and your encouragement. And thanks to the others who have commented on my story idea. Glad to see my work will not go unappreciated...
I really like the idea that people in Maya look the way they perceive themselves, rather than the way they look in the real world. It's a concept I use in a ...
I've got a question I wanted to get some opinions on. It sounds like many people on here have experience with other White Wolf games, so it's possible that...
I actually run a cross over chronicle. The rule is that one cannot use countermagick against a Discipline. It's not a form of magick, and therefore should not...
That's an interesting variation on Spirit Sight (Spirit 1), the Avatar form, and Umbral travel. I kind of like it, although I wanted to ask you how you handle ...
Thanks for your rapid response :) You actually posted this while I was online replying to another message.<br><br> I wanted to ask if you were aware that in a ...
Good question. Essentially, what I described for Spirit 1 is how the Avatar appears to others. I also make the Avatar more distinct and bright, the more dots...
Good question. I suggest one of the following:<br><br>For the Virtues, you could use half the Willpower, rounded up. That would give you a range of ...
There is an interesting thread to this dicussion about the use of countermagic on other supernatural creatures powers. I don't tend to run crossover...
I completely agree that antimagick should work on any supernatural effect.<br><br>I also agree that Quintessence (Mage), Vitae (Vampire), Glamour (Changeling),...
I have a question about an even that came up in a game I'm running. A vampire was using Obfuscate 1 to hide in the shadows and observe the players. What ...
A well expressed post, I agree with most of your conclusions. However, I wanted to say something about this part:<br><br>A Hermetic summoning a Forces 3 Prime...
Re: Obfuscate 1<br><br>Obfuscate seems to work by maffecting the ind of the potential viewer. Thus, I would think that Mind would be the appropriate Sphere...
Thanks for the rules clarification and you are correct in your observations. I think I did mention that a Mage could fast-cast a lightning strike, but that ...
I agree with Obfuscate being a mind thing. In fact I have let a mage in my game do 'obfuscate' type effect with mind. The Auspex thing could be spirit, though...
>> The only other 'change' I would make to the list would be to include Life magic rather that spirit in vissicitude.<br><br>I agree with most of your ...
Having actually USED this Aura changing ploy (making it pale to pass as a Vamp), it requires only Mind 2 in order to accomplish it, though, if a Vamp scored...
Thanks to everyone for your replies to my post. You have all given me a lot of ideas and help. I had one final question about this Obfuscate and Auspex ...
I just wanted to comment on your post about Aura changing. It was a neat idea, making one's Aura paler, and I hadn't thought of it before. You're right about ...
I don't think a Mage should be able to tell that Obfuscate or Auspex is being used any more than he would automatically realize that Mage rendered invisible...
