Tower of Faith Question
« on: May 15, 2011, 03:12:40 PM »
Caster with soulfire and tower of faith (Agent of Gabriel) says a quick prayer and casts a quick blast of (conviction 5, weapon 5)  soulfire to bake a Black Court. Since Tower of faith grants him Armor 1 mental does he still take the stress from casting?

I would say yes. Magical stress is self-inflicted (seems to me that should get around armor), and being able to cast spells without stress is far too powerful.
Don't make me drop a turkey on you...

Sidebar on YS250:

"Hey, Billy, can you take a stunt or cast a spell or make an item of some kind that gives you armor against the mental stress caused by casting a spell?"
"Good question! And no, you can’t. Armor just doesn’t help against stress you inflict on yourself."
