I've searched the forums, and read quite a few threads on Drakes. But I've yet to find a satisfying reply to a few questions.
Maybe you all can help me out?
Ok, first off. In MiTS under spirit powers it says something like; Essence/Magic/Power decided the TN of the resist test.
Spirits have essence, hence their powers, fx Lightning Bolt is cast at Essence (M).
But a Drake can be a magician, and initiate, meaning its Magic will quickly outpace his Essence.
Between this fact, and MiTS I'd assume the Drake can use his Magic to power his powers. Do I have this right?
Secondly, can a Drake use his powers in human form? - I only have Threats 2 to look in, and I didn't see any restriction written there. And a materialized spirit can certainly use its powers, as can a shapeshifter in both forms. So why not a Drake? (In one of the threads I found, they came to the conclusion that Drakes could NOT use their powers in human form.. No reason provided though)
Uhh.. Thats all for right now.
