Test of the Mind Questions

[Ender]

For the Medicine check, since it's an essay from memory, would the Stories Passion apply?

For the Government check, would the Kuge Lineage Distinction apply?

1.) Stories no. Precise Memory yes.

2.) Yes

In the event description:

Perfectionism (Fire)

Typo I guess? Perfectionism is Water according to RAW.

Yep. Just a typo

[Kakita Ahiru]

Asking this every test probably...

Doji Diplomat's tech - does it apply to any of the three steps?

Not this time. Doji Diplomat relies on interpersonal communication. This is you, a pile of scrolls, and writing what you've found

That makes sense!

Another question! If one has a Paragon advantage, could that possibly be used in Step 3?

Step Three: "What is the responsibility of the governing? What is the responsibility of the governed?"

Since a paragon might argue that upholding the virtues of bushido might be part of both governing and governed.

I'll allow it

[Kaeru Kaori]

If I reroll due to Allergy (OH NO, MY DARK SEEKRIT IS OUT! Or something), and fail, do I get a VP back?

It still acts as a disadvantage. So yes. Just little cross-contamination to start the day

[Kaeru Kaori]

Huh...could I use my Distincton of Ally (Miya Tetsu) on the last government roll, if I'm writing about emulating his style?

I already rolled, so it might not be relevant, but just thinking here.

I could see an argument. As you've already rolled, though, it won't apply.

[Kaiu Taura]

For Step One: "I apologize for the crudeness of the model. It is not to scale." since Taura has her own tools with her (who knew those would come in handy?) can I use the Kaiu Technique: Masterful Builder, p 59.

No big either way, but it would be fun to get to use my technique in the championship.

Your technique was specifically mentioned in the event description!
