Rules Q&A
- Q: If I use Bayushi Maemi to reduce a 3F personality to 0F, and they are dishonored, Successful Bounty has already resolved, can they use the Rulebook effect of Seppuku?
A: Successful Bounty is not an action, so no. Zen Faulkes, "Successful Bounty and Seppuku", 14 Sep 2010 - Q: Bayushi Maemi : does the word 'now' only mean "at that time", or that the target's force must really change thanks to this action in order to be dishonored?
A: Dishonored if 0, regardless of why. Zen Faulkes, "Bayushi Maemi", 17 Sep 2007
