Ahh, yes, I see.  I guess it just seemed odd that no one else had Potion Slots...kind of weird, eh?

I think the sample character sheet for Harry had potion slots.

Your bonuses to Thaumaturgy don't seem to add up. It looks like you have a +1 and 2 +2's.

That stumped me too. I think this...

[-3] Thaumaturgy - Conjuration +1, 4 potion slots

is shorthand for...

[-3] Thaumaturgy - Conjuration (+1 Complexity, +1 Control), 4 potion slots

But I could be wrong.

I would say the +1 would Not stack as it doesnt say anything about it stacking.

Hmmm, I had not considered this as a stacking issue, good point.

I am thinking of using this item of power:

Item of Power [+2]: The Golden Scimitar
Marked By Power [-1] (Allah)
Holy Touch [-1]
Bless This House [-1]

To use this item the character has to already have a High Concept that mentions Allah (for Marked By Power) and Righteousness (for Holy Touch).

So, I have some questions:

Could the character uses the sword's Bless This House to increase the strength of a threshold and then leave the sword behind and have the effect persist? Obviously the character is choosing to make use of the sword in this way so they wouldn't get a compel on the sword's aspect because they have been denied its use.

If the character also has Bless This House would the two powers stack like they would if they were on separate characters?

Holy Touch lists skills affected as "Many", but it only mentions the effect for the Fists skill. Would the sword do +1 stress when used with the Weapons skill? If so, would you also get the +1 stress when using Fists while the sword is sheathed?

Would Holy Touch's compel effect work when touching a creature with your hand or would you have to touch it with the sword?

And finally, I find this bit really vague, "This could qualify your touch as satisfying a Catch for the Toughness powers of some creatures." How are other people interpreting this? Does it satisfy all "Holly Stuff" type catches?

Thanks in advance for the help.

It's basically just moving a single trapping from one to the other, I don't really see a problem.

No, I get that. It is definitely a valid stunt. I had just never considered moving a trapping that affects a stress track before.

It's just that endurance doesn't have a lot of active uses. You could leave endurance, and presence for that matter, unrated then take stunts to move the Fortitude trappings to you apex skill. That gives you maxed out stress tracks and extra consequences and it frees up two skill slots at Great or higher.

While we are taking things to extremes, you could also throw in the Hunger stress track too. But since hunger comes from a power it may not be within the scope of a mortal stunt to mess with it.

You may use your conviction to draw up power for all spellcasting as though it were conviction.

I think you meant, "You may use your [endurance] to draw up power for all spellcasting as though it were conviction."

Well, going with the notion that a water spell could make one wet, how would that be effect spell casters?  Would there be an increase in required spell power?  An increase in control difficulty?  A compel to eliminate casting altogether?  That treads in dangerous waters (man, pun-damage is fun!) when it comes to the application of anti-caster magic, does it not?

Read the original post. MWKilduff wanted to throw a combination of evocations. First, a water blast attack. Then a lightning attack that took advantage of the fact that the target was drenched from the first attack. Since the first evocation was an attack and not a manoeuvre there is no free tag on a drenched aspect; but that target is drenched so he might be able to spend a fate point to invoke the drenched aspect.

Another option would be to tie the spell duration to consequences. When you recover from the consequences that you sacrificed then the spell ends.
