Two questions, one of which I probably already know the answer to. 1) Just to double check, since Social Charm is a bleed as a directed action, you CAN bleed your predator with it, right? 2) Ok, here's teh weird question... Let's say I have Sir Walter Nash out. Can I cast a Ventrue Justicar political aciton, make him the Justicar and get 5 votes from him? WE've had this happen several time before... the way WE decided it was if you make a Primogen a Prince with a Praxis Seizure, they only get 2 votes, as by definition, Primogen's support the Prince. If a Prince through Praxis Seizure become the Prince of more than one City, they still only get 2 votes, as they can only be in one city at a time in order to cast tehir votes. However, if a Prince becuase a Justicar through a political aciton, I see no reason why they couldnt' get 5 votes since being Justicar ONLY deals with clan activites where Princes deal with their Cities activites, so someone who is Both prince AND Justicar would get 2 votes for controlling the city and 3 votes fro controlling the clan... what do ya'all think? Tom? ANy official words? steve

There's nothing in the rules saying that titles can't be cumulative, but that is a little grim, yeah, so I asked about it. No response yet... look for another Random Jyhad Rulings, post.

I would say yes, that's how we're playing it now. A (D) action can be directed against anyone unless specifically narrowed down. >2) Ok, here's teh weird question...

Tom? ANy official words? I'm so glad someone else has had this happen. We've had the same happen with Praxis Seizures in recent games. We generally ruled (until we hear differently from WotC) that you can only use one title at a time. If you give Justicar to a Prince, you can either use the Prince votes, or Justicar votes at one time.....and likewise with Primogens. I dislike the idea that gaining a higher title strips away the lower title, as was bandied about during a game....it makes Seizures a little less powerful in contention.
