A really interesting take ... not quite sure I have a specific comment past that. But I have read it and am thinking about it!

Cool!

Looking at the stats, I'm not sure about the Numbing Saliva giving the target Resist Pain 2, meaning they can ignore wounds ... what if the Numbing Saliva just meant Vampire Penguins could make a Stealth Test to keep slurping on you without you noticing? Then Numbing Saliva test to set the TN for no...
