[HoE] Templars and Anti-Templars

["Scott Henry" <scott_henry@hotmail.com>]

It would be nice if those of you who used parts of my e-mail to respond to 
credited the source ya know :-P Anyways I feel making a player make a 
"temptation" roll is a lame cheapass way out for a gm too lazy to think up a 
way for the player to be tempted to use his powers. I know its rude what I 
said but I hate gms who have to resort to some die roll like this is D&D 
which relies  more on dice than REAL roleplaying. A true gm would devise a 
way to get the AT to use his powers and also a GOOD gm would NEVER let the 
damn AT know the truth about his powers! DUH! Your not stoping the problem 
from happening if the players character knows! You letting the problem 
happen in the first place AND then only do you deal with it! Just dont let 
the AT know IC where his/her powers come from. If I did any die rolling for 
this it would be cooler to do it in secret to see if the AT "subconciously" 
uses his powers to save his ass. Then you could tell the player to give you 
the appropiate chip but dont say why. Just smirk and tell him he lived 
somehow or managed to kill that servitor with his last sword strike. Later 
on start to hint at just who is giving the AT his powers...it will be much 
better that way. But if I did any die rolling for the AT's powers being used 
thats how Id do it.
