Ok, we're (my play group and myself) are confused. I've read multiple threads regarding the new allies-torpor thing, but I'm still not sure. Please spell it out for us (because one person says one thing, and another says another, and we've got some people who just aren't sure of what the heck is going on.) Rafastio plays burst of sunlight... She's either a) treated as a vampire, burns the life for the aggravated damage, tries to go to torpor because she's acting as a vampire but can't because she's *really* an ally, and instead burns. or b) treated as a vampire, and burns the life for the aggravated damage, but because she *only* burns the life for the damage she does not go to torpor, and hence does not burn (unless she takes damage from someone else hitting her or whatever, that's inconsequential to my question, really). Please be kind and just lay it out. Instantiation of Absurdity Salubri Primogen of Northgate (Seattle)
