Rules Q&A
- Q: Clarity- The Sky's Barrier.
Does this allow a personality who would not normally contribute force while bowed to now contribute force?
A: Yes, the effect "flips the script" on the Rules, as it were. Normally, a Personality contributes Force when unbowed and doesn't when bowed. This effect supercedes the normal rules and has that Personality contribute only while bowed. Brook Cunningham, "Sun and Moon #rules-questions", 13 Jun 2024
