 +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.

-- Enables the Hunter to recognize every single supernatural as a supernatural in some way+- Enables the Hunter to recognize every single supernatural as a supernatural in some way. 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.

 +Discern also adds features associated with the monster in folklore. I.e. Witches have black hands, vampires are more corpselike and werewolves have more demonic features associated with werewolves in folklore (See sign of the wolf). Without lore dots however you have no idea what you're looking at, but it does provide a good starting point.

 +==== Derangements ====
 +Mage takes priority if there is a derangement present. If none is present in the mage book the hunter ones maybe used. Flavour and RP taken from the derangement's description however maybe taken for your PCs. I.e. Paranoia as described in the hunter core with the mechanics of the mage book (Despite them being the same).
