Okay. So Saman's suggestion does not seem good to you either then?
 
Okay. So how do you think that the page should be revised more specifically?

Otherwise @SamanPatou what would your write-up of power use be, for the page?
 
Both Impress' and Saman's suggestions above seem fine to me.
 
Do fear-inducing statuses or power over people of a lower status count towards anything?

"His bounty is over 9000, how are we going to beat that?"
"Magic power is so high and it makes me tremble"
"That's the highest-ranking warrior in all of the 9 realms, shiver me timbers"

or something like that.

would this be fear inducement or social influencing or nothing?
 
A year ago or so we established that infamy wasn't to be considered social influencing, nor simple power gaps or monstrous appearances.

Intimidation still works as such, but must be carried out in a specific way.
 
Well, Saman and Impress need to reach some kind of agreement.
 
If someone wants to write drafts of examples/possible uses, I can evaluate and apply them, but as of now I can't do such thing myself.

Okay. Would somebody here be willing to handle this please?
 
I really don't know if I can help with this given I don't know characters that utilize this ability noticeably but I can give an example I guess but I thought the page already had examples?
 
That seems like a good idea, yes. Feel free to mention the suggestion to merge fear manipulation with empathic manipulation there. Thank you. 🙏

Should we close this thread?
