Stone Table Sacrifice

(1/11) > >>

Rasins:
What would happen if a coin carrying Denarian were to be sacrificed on the stone table?

Shift8:
Depends on which court gets the power id imagine. If winter I think were screwed.

Griffyn612:
I suspect there's a difference between a mantle bearer and a coin bearer, from the perspective of power possession.  The mantles seem to be tools bonded with the bearer.  The coins likely retain the power without actually giving anything over, other than lending it out.

If a coin bearer were sacrificed, the coin would probably roll away as quickly as possible, but it's power would be cut off before that.

And if the sacrificial blade were to pass through the coin?

Snark Knight:
I don't think the relationship between the Fallen and host is such that the Stone Table could be used to consume the angel's power. They let the host use a portion of their power, but I can't see the Fallen being anything worse than somewhat weakened to the tune of whatever fraction they delegated to the host's use (like a Knight holds power enough to upset the balance between courts, but sacrificing him isn't going to depower the Queens from whose power his mantle was sourced).

As for breaking the coin itself, I believe the WOJ on that would still apply (basically, it's absurdly difficult and would release the Fallen rather than kill them anyway).
