In the case of the example concept noted whereby a power is bought through a FOCI and is powered by Continuing Charges.
As I understand it:
1) If the controlling character uses a Charge from the FOCI the effects of the Continuing Charge stick around for the duration of the Charge even if the FOCI is switched out of the VPP.
BUT
2) If the controlling character uses a charge from the FOCI and then lends the FOCI to a friend/teammate to use, the controlling character cannot switch the FOCI out of thier VPP until they get the FOCI back (or if they did not apply FOCI to the Control Cost, until the FOCI is lost/destroyed) as noted under the VPP rules in FREd.

Hi Steve; been following this in the HERO Systems Discussion and noticed the rules question you answered earlier (http://www.herogames.com/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=2682)
Just to clarify for my own purposes:
In the case of the example concept noted whereby a power is bought through a FOCI and is powered by Continuing Charges.
As I understand it:
1) If the controlling character uses a Charge from the FOCI the effects of the Continuing Charge stick around for the duration of the Charge even if the FOCI is switched out of the VPP.
BUT
2) If the controlling character uses a charge from the FOCI and then lends the FOCI to a friend/teammate to use, the controlling character cannot switch the FOCI out of thier VPP until they get the FOCI back (or if they did not apply FOCI to the Control Cost, until the FOCI is lost/destroyed) as noted under the VPP rules in FREd.
Is this a correct interpretation of the rules?
Thanx!
