Can Nightbane dmg vampires/other SN creatures w bare hands?
I'm not familiar with Nightbane (don't have the books, don't know nothing about it). However, something caught my curiosity. One of my buddies said that if he read right, they can damage vampires or some other supernatural creatures with their bare hands.
Anyone know anything about this?
Thanks.

If something is Supernatural their hand to hand attacks will damage vampires. Just like every other magical attacks.
May you be blessed with the ability to change course when you are off the mark.

Yes, they just can't kill them permanently that way

Well...
Beat the vamp into unconsciousness, stick a hockey stick in it's chest and rip it's head off... I'd say it's pretty much dead Just in case, you can also toss the body into a dishwasher. (I've never agreed with a shower or a squirt gun damaging vamps...unless the water in the squirt gun is holy water.)

re-read the rules, you have to stake them, cut off the head, AND burn the head and body seperately--otherwise it's not dead
also, you just said hockey stick, so by definition they are not using their bare hands to do all of that
Just in case, you can also toss the body into a dishwasher. (I've never agreed with a shower or a squirt gun damaging vamps...unless the water in the squirt gun is holy water.)
Technically, if you don't also immerse the head in running water, the vampire still isn't dead and the head will just regrow a new body eventually

You can beat them into unconscious but you have to stake them, decapitate them, then burn them.

nope. But you can beat them till they are too damaged to move for a time.

Unless it was changed in WB1r, IIRC WB1 had it that at -21 HP vampires would go into a coma or something like that. So technically he could beat them into unconsciousness...

IMO, since the origin of the attack is SN creature it would harm them. It just wouldn't kill them AFAIK.

If they are mystical attacks then yes they would damage the vamp. examples of this would be guardians' light powers, a dragon's fire breath attack, and NB/NS shadow bolts.
Superpower energy attacks....*shrugs* they are not explicitly mystical in nature.
(I will let someone else check the conversion books to see if they effect vamps.)

Re: Can Nightbane dmg vampires/other SN creatures w bare han
Supernatural anything should hurt other Supernatural stuff.
But I also used the van preventing phrase of "In my game"
I just couldn't let a Cosmoknight not be able to use his most powerful weapon, especially against vampires.
Also regardless of Dragon type the breathe weapon should affect other Supernatural stuff.

My memory of some of the newer morphus features is not so good...
Does anyone know if any morphus can generate water or fire to end vamps? Or would you have to rely on magic for this?
