I have a NPC I was going to create, with a charisma of 5, and increase charisma spell. With the force of five, wouldn't he need at least three successes to over come the sustaining penalty of -2? I would like to know if there is any errata or listed rule that speaks of special cases, like ignoring the penalty with rolls involving the increased trait. (I thought I read one, once)
I know he could use a sustaining focus or quicken it, but I would like for him to not have to have a high dollar item like that on his person or spend the karma. If there are any rules outside of the two options above, please let me know where they can be found. Thank you. |
