Just a quick question, If for instance Dragos got a soul gem and then vissitude poisoning...then played enough cards to burn him self would he trigger the soul gem if he burned and then played a reform body. If not then can you describe what happens exactly. Many thanks, Ste...@doughty-engineering.co.uk

No. Soul Gem kicks in when the bearer is burned. Reform Body replaces the burn effect with a go to torpor effect. If you wait for the Soul Gem effect to kick in before playing Reform Body, Dragos will be safely in the ash heap by the time the Soul Gem effect is finished, and cannot play Reform Body. In this case, it wouldn't be that interesting anyhow: Dragos could choose to reform body first, but would then be burned again by Vicissitude Poisoning, at which time the Soul Gem would kick in after all. -- LSJ (vte...@white-wolf.com) VTES Net.Rep for White Wolf, Inc.
