Singing? Sooo many Fel tests...

Would I do one for every verse, or each line? And would it be Fel or Agi to pull off a super-sexy Maufactorum Slave Shuffle? :P
It'd probably end up being two for the song. That's what I'd do.

That would be awesome.
What stat does perform use? Fel? If I play guitar with my mind powers, can it be WP?

Session XP is 300 as normal.

Guitar playing can either be Fellowship for showmanship or Agility to knock off some sick riffs.

Nice. Looks like Ja'Ne is being a technical metal guitarist. Glowcat, you now realize you are managing a band. In the Warhammer 40K universe. Is this awesome (Y/N)?

But what if it's mind powers?

It's a bit far out, even for Rogue Trader, but I can work with it.

But what if it's mind powers?

I tend to look at mental control as WP->STR and INT->AGI. If you want to play a guitar using your mind it helps to be creative as well as have the brainpower to manage the complex telekinetic patterns in a way that doesn't rip the strings off.

Ah.
Damn.
But wouldn't WP be mind/brain power? Int is intelligence, not strength of mind.

Brain power as in being able to grasp and work with complexity on a massive scale. That sort of mental finesse falls under Intelligence, I'd think. Mind power would be raw force of will, and is not synonymous with brain power as I was using it.

Ah, alright.
Could I make my guitar a daemon axe (ohohohoh) and use compel or something to make it sound FUCKAWESOME?
And, I think I can still argue my case.
When using psychic weapons (such as Force Bolt or Psychic Blade) you roll WP instead of the associated weapon stat, showing that WP does replace other stats when doing things with psychic powers. Shouldn't that mean that WP replacing stats carries over to precision TK?

You could, but as far as being a good idea...

One of the things I did in the modified psychic powers was change that, and I take every opportunity to house rule it out.

So, Karina and Ja'ne on guitar. I call lead!

Mordeci on drums/ lights.

Skive on vocals.

We require a bass player.

and we have my kroot for roadies.

Gentlemen? We have a band.

Well, Rask would be our vocals, due to his Fellowship and everything.
I don't think Skive would be part of the band. My only good stat is WP and I can't use it for anything. Unless deathmetal, and it would be a WP roll to continue screaming into a microphone.
Hm, I could resist all of those drugs you guys'd end up doing.

I think Rasosk would be more suited to managing. 8) Here's my cut, and here's... Your cut.
