okay so the changeling power that allows you "copy the face" of another. If, say Luffy were to break into a place and passed a rigged camera using the power, who's face would show up exactly?

Oooh good question. Well, the power is at least 75% physical (shifter powers are placed between alurist and killer), so their fake face would be on camera. However, until I make it possible to avoid being ID'd by a camera using shifter powers, you should probably roleplay some kind of telltale for now, on camera at least.

Grid wise you can only use Changeling when going to attack someone.

That's very true. However, I encourage people to use powers in RP creatively.

Since Hariasa's asked the question, I'm actually a bit curious.

If a vampire has a vision (like Isabella Drake's original vision from Crow) or a very realistic dream, how would that show up if a Telepath tried to read their memories?

Would the vision or dream show up at all? Would it be obvious that it is a vision/dream?

Dreams generally aren't significant memories for a person. I mean, if both roleplayers agree then yes it could show up in memories, but generally not.

How would Paladins feel towards Blood Thieves in general. Not talking from a player perspective, but as groups?

The Order of St. James would probably be divided on this issue, in the same way they are slightly divided on the subject of religion (not like the old days, lol). Some would call it an abomination, but others would be more reasonable and point out that blood thieves aren't a danger to humans, they are a danger to vampires.

Do you still plan on naming important npc's to the town, like the Mayor? And are there any plans to give names to the streets?

Thank you for addressing the previous questions about Wraiths. I suppose the next logical question would be, "Were there Wraiths in the world before the opening of the Veil?" In other words, were the Wraith Guides able to manifest in the real world between the time of the Holocaust and the Veil Tear, or were they trapped in the SR that entire time?

*Yes to the spirits, no to the wraiths. [2]

Is there any way to access real-world information from the Shadow Realm for Paths other than Telepaths? Maybe remnants or pieces of it, anyways? Just little... fragments that echo into it, if that makes sense.

So the thing about the Crow and the bounties and vamps connecting to it.

1. How do vamps know for flat out that humans like Blood Thieves cannot connect? As pointed out to me. 200 years ago the Elders had no computers so the knowledge didn't come from them. Whose to say it's not something connected to the web but like magic blocked from humans?

2. If it is his brain that vamps connected to. Then Telepathic powers are ' jacking' into his brain what's keeping yet again something else with powers from doing so. Are we basically see thoughts then when they do that? Shouldn't that stuff not be so... clear? You know a memory pop in and there type of thing? Brains don't function in single mode is the Crow then removing it? If he is how does know that other noise isn't wanted? Clearly they aren't connected via a computer so shouldn't CrowNet stuff ( bounty list, chats, forums be under telepathic messages not computer based one? )

3. Why would the Crow reward anyone who learned either of those abilities to connect to the CrowNet when he is pro masq and likely want them to be punished for being bad so they don't do it again.

4. Same based questions why would a powerful Telepath who can build several brain functions allow a Telepath the ability to do anything from the shadow realm?
