Since this book is such a mess when it comes to mechanics, a question:


Beast Seeming
Gain an additional dot of one Resistance Attribute at creation. Gain +3 to Initiative rolls and Speed, and may choose to deal lethal damage with unarmed attacks. **It costs a point of Glamour per three consecutive turns to enjoy this benefit if he has Shaken or Spooked Condition, or another Condition that imposes fear.**


What exactly is the benefit here? Is "he" my target or myself? What is the cost if there is no fear conditon?

He is you. No cost if there is no condition.

Wyrd 1 can use 1 Glamour point per turn.

However several contracts require you to spend 2 Glamour.

Does this mean you spend the Glamour over several turns? If you cannot, I might need to adjust things. <.<

You can spend it over turns. You are just slower than someone with wyrd 2 at it.

Ok multiple questions regarding event:

1. Bright one Kith blessing (3 successes is considered exceptional if using socialize to be the center of attention) would this apply to the first roll?

2. Would grappling specialty apply to the strength+brawl optional roll?

3. Any chance Giant could get a bonus dice for the above mentioned event roll?

4. Can we use contracts for any/all of these rolls?

Some event questions:

1) Applicable Merits(add +1 dice if you have 1+ of these) -So you only add 1 dice even if you have multiple of these?
2) Do the effects of these merits apply also (for example, Trained Observer applies to perception rolls normally, but it's listed as an applicable merit)
3) Do we add any mantle bonus to this or is it too mixed?
4) More of a weird question...can we lie/obscure the truth for the 'start an interesting conversation'? (Winter mantle 2 effect/specialty effect)

1. Yep, just a small bonus
2. You still get their normal effects
3. Are you referring to the bonus to your own court? The group of Lost is very mixed.
4. Yes, I will allow it.
