Ok so I think I am beginning to get a handle on this but,
I have an Item of Power, that offers Sponsered Soulfire Channeling and Ritual.....
Using the power through the sword to create a Ward on an area from Demonic Influences, Spirit Damage (through Channeling) to damage a vampire etc all make sense with in the system and now completely understand,
Heres the question my player has just asked me, can the sword (does the sword) convey the ability for item slots?
I am tempted to say only enchanted items that use the sword as a creation factor so plunging it into a liquid substence to create a potion for example....
Also and the radon for the modify I now have a bother player asking if sponsered magic works though an item (the player in question is thinking of using a hammer as his item and being a scion of Thor/avatar of Thor but the powers in the hammer and is an hierloom)
I really need to get my head around this
HELP
does this sound right? (i don't think focus items are applicable as the sword itself is the way the power is focused/avalible to the weilder)
