I understand and like the rules around seeing magic being cast. Basically low force spells might not be noticed, but high force will.
How does this translate to spirit powers? Spirit powers are not spells, for example they are not resisted by counterspell. There are obviously vulgar effects: engulf, elemental aura, natural weapon etc that are in your face and obvious. Accident is specifically stated as being not obvious. The rules for visibility of possession by spirits are pretty clear. What about powers such as guard and confuse? Will it be obvious if a force 6 spirit casts confusion on you or guards you? Would you notice a movement reduction power until you started to move? On a related not how can these powers be dispelled? |
