That means his mind, emotions and body can be controlled by monsters with such powers. That also means he’s oblivious to, stupefied by or terrified by monsters’ appearance. The typical result is running in terror, rationalizing away the scene to make some mundane sense of it, or putting events completely out of mind as if they never happened. | ||

| + | As per the book. You cannot spend willpower on your edge rolls. Such effects are the exclusive functions of Conviction. By contrast, Willpower applies when hunters perform “mundane” actions such as jumping between buildings, lifting heavy objects or staying awake. However, having an edge to attack roles (I.e Surge) still allows willpower spending on the role. | ||

This is mostly done by adding additional features when the sight is used. This can be RPed in different ways, from a change in the eyes of the supernatural (Going from normal to black), a certain aura on the other or a change in features. The only two conditions is that the change must be sight based and it can't directly show what the monster is. Circumstances however may reveal the true details of the supernatural foes. See page 133 of the core for more details. |
