Not when those are magical monsters. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

I noticed you answered Neraph's question about the vessel's vulnerabilities by talking instead about the spirit's vulnerabilities. Are you saying both are true, and do you have the rules reference he asked for? Just curious.


I think that they would both be true, if both parts of the combined possession possess vulnerabilities. If The individual components possess the Vulnerabilities, and the book does not indicate that they lose them when possessing, then they should still be there, don't you think? Lack of specificity does not negate the general rule after all... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smokin.gif)

I was referring to Pun-Pun vampire-spirit monsters, of course. Even if you have a silver-plated wooden stake. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

Spirits do not lose their vulnerabilities when they have possessed something. The Spirit still has the Vulnerability. And since the spirit is bolsetring the person possessed with HIS Spirit Magic, then the joined entity (as it were) is STILL vulnerable to the material that forms its vulnerablity... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wobble.gif)

No sir, the vessel has the vulnerability. If the spirit's Special Attributes and Powers overwrite those of the vessel, would the vulnerabilities be overwritten also?

EDIT: Read the other 4 posts. Was answered, more or less.

Don't forget that the vessel's physical attributes are not overwritten – they're included. And since vulnerability is invariably a physical phenomenon, the argument that a vessel's vulnerabilities remain does have some merit.

The least of which is that the Spirit's Vulnerabilities would apply at a bare minimum... I am inclined to include all vulnerabilities if they have them though... as the physical body does not lose those vulnerabilities from what I can tell... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wobble.gif)
