[Sodium_noir] Hell is Other People

[Antonia Bifano]

Forwarded on behalf of Jennie.  And welcome back, btw!

hey Mitzie :-)


welcome back . . . I'd ask the ST if Christine's long forgotten talisman 
(hairclip) can grant her any immunity from Obfuscate/Chimestry, but Spikey 
ain't around :-(


regards


Jenniex

Extract from an email from Spikey from several trillion years ago, back when 
Christine and her hairclip were created :-)

<SNIP>
Sounds sweet! Hmmmm ..... Dragon ..... fly ..... moon ..... OK, its power,
though Christine will be unaware of such is ...... immunity from illusions.
With Changelings in town and with the Harlequin on stage, this will give
Christine an certain edge over most mortals. She can attempt to pierce
illusions such as those created with Obfuscate and Chimestry as if she
were an awakened being. Chimera and Chimestry powers will have a reduced,
and in some cases lack of, effect on her.

Deny the Impossible
