Hey all... I know I've been gone for- what? Two years? But I'm back, and I have questions... Specifically about Vampires and Regeneration.
I know Critters says that Regeneration automatically heals any damage that doesn't affect the spine or brain. But what about damage caused through Astral Combat? As an attack directly on the Vampire's astral form rather than physical, does that allow regeneration? Cheers, -JH. |
