Enchanted Item Special Effect Help...

[finnmckool]

I'm working on an Enchanted Item. So what I'm thinking in specific is a Medicine Bag that allows you to hit a Spirit. Like, tie it to your staff, and staff can hit a spirit. Or whatever. So pretty much an Enchanted Item that satisfies "The Catch." Possible? Stupid? Breaking? In the rules and I'm just not catchin' on?

Look at the Ghost Dust example in YS to get a feel for that kind of thing.  An enchanted item that can satisfy any catch won't work, but one designed to bypass a specific type of catch, like the one for spirits and such is feasible.

That's pretty clearly outside the range of a mere enchanted item - consider that satisfying any catch is the major power of the Swords of the Cross, and costs a fate point to use.

Now, something that satisfies certain catches - say, those of native american spirits, or ghosts / undead, or some other category like that - that might be doable.

Yeah, that's what I'm going for...like Ghosts and the like. Not satisfying ANY catch at all, but A catch. So A Catch is okay, then ya think?

Absolutely. After all, if there's not some way to bypass a Catch then it might as well not exist.
