Iaijutsu Lesson vs Corrupt Jade Sliver

My question is, if you use CJS to up your CHI, then challenge/accept/etc. a Lesson, then does your force/chi revert to what it was before you started messing with them with CJS? Or does Lesson only care about the "direct" +/- on the item's stastics and not effects caused by them before the challenge and duel?

Play it as written. Do not calculate any bonuses or penalties from Items. That includes the bonuses of Corrupt Jade Silver's ability.

On: Iaijutsu Lesson

Ashihei Q

If I attach either a Senpet Scimitar or Yobanjin Wyrm to Hiruma Ashihei, does he become dishonored, or does his trait prevent the dishonoring? I'm saying no, unfortunately...

No. There is no Action producing a dishonoring effect. There is only a Trait on the Scimitar itself. Ashihei can't stop it.

On: Senpet Scimitar, Yobanjin Wyrm, Hiruma Ashihei

Hm, light load for Sunday. If I missed something there, please repost it with [RULES] in the subject line and I'll get back to you at the first opportunity.

Thanks,
