Newbie-esque Body Chi (Kokyu) questions...

[Guest]

Reading the description of Body Chi (a Chi Mastery Power in N&SS) the paragraph seems a little ambigious as to whether or not the power can affect only the self or other people. Is it possible to pump the Chi into a friend to enhance his/her attributes?

Nope, it's not possible. I don't know why the paragraph seems ambigious to you. It's pretty obvious that the ability talks only about increasing the character's attributes, not anyone elses.

Also, if the martial artist was Mega-Damage or had supernatural strength, could they still enhance their own strength attribute? Say a supernatural creature trained in the martial arts and learned the Body Chi power, could they raise their supernatural strength attribute?

Theoretically, yes, unfortunately the subject of other strength types and how they would be affected by Body Chi hasn't been officially addressed.

I didn't expect it to be ambiguous either, until a certain rules lawyer argued with me that since the paragraph doesn't specifically exclude the possibility then it must be possible. I said that wasn't how it works, but I wanted a second opinion, just to make sure... thanks for clarifying.

You could counter the RL with the fact that it dose not specifically say it is possible. But then agine i your the GM you can write in your oun book to specifie whice way you want it to be.

Using the "the GM is always right" rule.
