No I don't mean the Lord of...., but Koji Suzuki's Ring. Reading I came across and interesting limitation for psychic powers. The theory is everybody have psychic abilities to some degree. This being the case, most psychics can not perform in front of sceptics. The skeptics minute abilities saying this can't happen, stops the psychic from performing his/her abilities. So I was wondering if someone can give me a good idea of a scale for this power starting from the weakest (it only takes 2 skeptics (-1 perhaps)) to stop the powers up to 50-100 skeptics (-1/4)). Of course someone who doesn't take it could be viewed as very powerful or perchance actaully start charging an advantage for greater numbers.

Thanx in Advance

When I first saw this, I thought you were going to talk about Wagner's Ring cycle...now *that* would be one heck of a marathon gaming session. :)

Hm...new website...Opera HERO...

Dunno...Physical lim:takes X pts of supress or dispell from skeptical veiwers (X per each)??? does this mean that oratory and showmanship rule as skills? Or the Bagwan can totally thrash inside the compound where everyone believes he has powers?
