clairsentience POV

[amusingfool]

Some friends and I were playing the other night, and we understood something in the phrasing of clairsentience differently. The question is, when I activate clairsentience, I need to choose a target point. Is this point inherently a spot in space? Or is it, "I'm putting my POV in this mirror"? It would normally be phrased as the latter, but what happens if the mirror in question is moved? Does the POV move, or not? (assuming no focus) Or can the player choose one way or the other (presumably making that choice once at character creation)?

Also, according to one of the other forum posts, we've been playing entangle wrong for years and years. If I attack someone in an entangle, do they suffer all the STUN from the attack (regardless of whether or not the entangle is broken, and regardless of advantages on the entangle)?

1. See 5ER 141 re: the mobility of Clairsentience perception points.

2. If a character attacks a target who’s trapped in an Entangle, the Entangle’s DEF+BODY in effect acts as extra defense for him. But it’s just ordinary defense; it’s not a Force Wall. The DEF+BODY subtracts from the BODY and STUN damage done to the target (as do the target’s own defenses, of course), and the target takes the remaining damage as usual. (Of course, if any BODY gets past, that means the Entangle’s broken.)
