heyyyyyy, I've been busy reading the Oneiroi rulebook for most of today and I'm already in love with the system
there are some things that are still unclear to me about combat though.
one thing that confuses me a little is that the rulebook says that Oneiroi don't have health, only qualia. Does that mean that any physical harm they suffer goes directly to their qualia? Cause, like, I'll go ahead and assume they aren't gonna be invincible to rusty crowbars.
Similarly, but reverse for the nightmares, who also only have qualia. Here, I could imagine that they're supposed to be immune to physical harm. Is that the case? (and my magical girl's rusty crowbar would be useless) or is it kinda … whatever the GM finds funniest?
Thanks so much in advance! We're currently in the process of gathering a group to give the game a try and can't wait to start
Glad you’re enjoying it, and hope y’all have fun.
The intended interpretation is that Oneiroi taking physical or social harm, just hurts their Qualia, same as Nightmares. They essentially only have one resource pool, instead of two. Because the idea is Nightmares and Oneiroi… aren’t truly real. You’re not a human anymore.
But banals, who have health for physical and qualia for social, don’t have Musings.
But yes the crowbar would work against a nightmare lol.
