I've read so much this evening that I'm not sure if my mind is overcomplicating things or not.

QUOTE ("pg174")
While sustaining ... draining on the magician's magical abilities. For each sustained spell ... -2 dice penalty on all other tests


The clarification I need. Is that penalty applied to all tests (as it basically reads) or just all additional magic related tests (as it kind of implies)?

This'll probably be clearer after I get some sleep, but I'd like to get some input asap just in case it isn't. Thanks!
