Stretching Question

[Constantine]

I just read the stretching FAQ, and this issue isn't covered, so I thought I'd ask for an official ruling. If you buy stretching area of effect, or explosion, does that mean you could use your strength as an area of effect or explosion?

If you buy it does not cross intervening spaces, is your "limb" ever vulnerable to attack?

Thanks.

1. Characters cannot buy Advantages like Area Of Effect and Explosion for Stretching unless the GM rules otherwise, in which case he can figure out how he wants that to work.

2. No, as described on 5ER 222. Otherwise the Advantage would be pretty meaningless. ;)
