Greater Glamours and Sacred Guardian
« on: November 11, 2016, 12:05:13 AM »
For reference, Greater Glamours is in YS 166, and Sacred Guardian is in OW 80.

Has anyone used either of these on a PC? If so, what were your experiences with them?

Greater Glamours is horribly ambiguous. If your table agrees on exactly how the whole "True Seemings" stuff works it can work, but my opinion after including it was to make it NPC-only.

Sacred Guardian...I wouldn't use the OW version. Use the PP version. The OW version is super fun...for the PC with the power. It's annoyingly powerful for everyone else. If you want to use it, I'd at LEAST make it cost -2 or -3 instead. If you like the whole "spend mental stress to get better physically" I recommend checking out Supernatural Martial Arts and tweaking it to suit your needs.

I've had a lot of fun with Greater Glamours, but it is pretty horribly ambiguous. And every reasonable interpretation is extremely powerful. I wouldn't blame anyone for banning it.

As for Sacred Guardian, I'll just second what dragoonbuster said.
