If a mage has a rigger mod and was jumped into a drone, could he cast spells as the drone?
My initial thought is no by RAI and possibly RAW, but an argument could be made for it. It gets into some fairly metaphysical ideas, though, so I don't think I'm really well acquainted with the fiction to say with 100% certainty that it should be a no. The Argument 1) Mages can cast spells 2) Mages do not need their body to cast spell; see Astral space 3) A rigger can "jump in" or project his consciousness into a drone with the proper gear Questions: Is this analogous? If a mage casts a mind affecting spell on a drone that has a rigger jumped in, is the rigger affected? (The answer to this, which I don't know and am AFB so cannot look up, is very important!) Anyway, just some crazy idea I had while playing around with Chummer during my lunch break. What are your thoughts? |
