Hullo once again, I forgot to mention it in my reply post to Karl, but I have recently had someone play a reaction card from torpor on me. I had put Meshenka into torpor with Corinne (2 tzimisce going at it), and when I bled the next turn, an un-rescued Meshenka played a telepathic counter! I, of course, exploded. WHat!!! you cant do that! Unfortunately I was playing with a new group of people, so when in Rome. But when I went to look at my rule-bookie, I couldnt find a statement that a vampire was forbbidden from doing this. I have just searched around but can't find one of my Jyhad rulebooks, but my Vampire (TM) rulebook never actually expressly states that a vampire in torpor cannot play reaction cards. On page 42 'leaving torpor' it states that the only action a vampire in torpor may take is to leave torpor. It doesnt say that their brain is too scrambled to go get pizza (our name for telepathic counter). So is this possible? James B. 'Dum de dum, Blah die Blah'. (German Version)
