Mask of the Red Child (sounds like a cheesy Movie Title...)

Unread post by cornholioprime »

In Rifts China Two, it states that the Soothsayer has Ability #5, can see ''the Face of Evil.''

But in Rifts China One, it states that the Red Child is undetectable in Child Form.

Anyone else at a loss as to whether or not the Soothsayer can ''see'' a Red Child????

P.S. I'm interested in a 'real' answer, not just conjecture, or what a DM 'should' pick.

Can ANYTHING except a God see a Red Child for what it is??????

16 Blessed art Thou above all others, O COALITION STATES, beloved of Kevin;

17 For Thou art allowed to do Evil without Limit, nor do thy Enemies retaliate.

18 Thy Military be run by Fools and Dotards.

19 Yet thy Nation suffers not. Praise be unto Him that protects thee from all harm!!

Admittedly I have neither book...

I'd say no.

For now, anyway.

There is precidence for this. There are African(?) and Philipine vampires that can not be detected by any means during the day.

Generally if something is undetectable then only something that specifically states that it can detect it can. If it doesn't it can't.
It works the same way for indestructible items.
