Hi all,
This may seem a strange question, but I noticed in ArM5, the example of the Faerie Lord of Ice (Supernatural Realms/Bestiary section) has mentem powers which presumably control humans.
Would those work on his faeries as well?
Do mentem effects work on Faeries generally, or could faerie familiars be immune to mentem attacks? If there is a dangerous Faerie or Magic creature with InMe or ReMe effects, could a faerie evade their powes?
I notice in the shape/material bonus table that "panpipes" includes a bonus for "manipulate faerie emotions." Does this mean that Mentem can effect Faeries?
If not, how do you take advantage of the shape?
I also note that sometimes in the Play by Post games people have used Corpus on Faeries of human shape. Does that mean Animal works on Faeries of Animal shape? Obviously creatures made of elemental material would be different, but I'd assume that they'd be effected by their elemental form? So a normal Perdo Ignem effect which quenches all flame would work against a Faerie made of pure flame?
I note that Perdo Animal works on even Mythic Creatures of Magic Might (The Agony of the Beast spell example when explaining sympathetic magic in ArM5 was used on a Dragon as normal) - does this hold true for Faerie creatures as well? If not, why not?
