DFRPG / Mimic Form and others shapeshifting powers
« on: March 21, 2015, 02:35:39 AM »
Shapeshifting has always been one of my favorite powers. I often play a druid in D&D,  a Lunar in Exalted  or a Gangrel in Vampire.
So naturally, the Changeling character I'm building will  be a shapeshifter.
I'm now hesitating between taking a  combination of Glamour + Modular Abilities and Mimic Form + Modular Abilities/Mimic Abilities.
I'd like to know a few things before choosing, though:

What shapes can Mimic Form allows one to shift into? Human? Supernatural creatures? Animals?  If my character manages to get a hold of a vampire's blood, a dragon's scales or a tiger's hair, will she be able to take their appearance?
If she takes the form of an individual of another gender, will she gain their reproductive abilities?

How hard is it to see through a Glamour?

Can Strength enhancements add to the damage caused by the Breath Weapon power?
Can Breath Weapon count as a weapon when it come to defense?

DFRPG / Questions about Spellcasting and Changelings
« on: March 01, 2015, 07:35:39 PM »
Hello, I'm now trying to build a character (some kind of changeling mystic, with a more oriental flavor rather than using the usual british/celtic inspiration)  and I have some questions I'd like to have a few clarifications on a few points, before deciding what kind of powers I'd like her (or him, I'm still not sure) to have.

I was wondering if a changeling could use Evocation or Channeling and Thamaturgy or Rituals, or if they had to take Seelie/Unseelie Magic? Can changelings naturally acquire the use of Seelie/Unseelie Magic, or does it have to be granted by one of the Queens?

Also, does a Channeling/Rituals dedicated to the spirit element allow for both telekinetic (blunt) and psychic (subtle) effects or just one of the two?

I know that regarding the Accords, Changelings depend from the Court of their Faerie parent, but what if they can learn mortal magic? Do they suffer from breaking the Laws of Magic? Are they considered mortals for the purpose of summoning demons and Outsiders?

Finally, I'd like to know if Glamour is only about illusions or also about other kinds of effects; the write-up for Jenny Greenteeth seems to suggest there is some sort of overlap or redundancy with Incite Emotions, as does Harry's accusations the first time he met her at Maeve's place. Is it a mistake, or perhaps just that all Fae magic is refered to as glamour in the fluff?

DFRPG / Modular Abilites and Catch
« on: February 22, 2015, 10:49:16 PM »
Hello, I'm new to the game and I'd like to know if it is possible to apply a Catch to the Modular Abilities power, given that this power can be used to gain Toughness and Recovery powers.
