Report #105
Skillset: Stealth Skill: Truss
 Org: Ninjakari Status: Rejected Dec 2008
Furies' Decision:
We do not believe this to be necessary.
Problem: Truss has a longer writhe time than normal entanglement, similar to
transfix. However, invoke summer/tipheret provide an instant release from truss,
making it no better than normal entanglement despite the extra requirements
(target must be prone to be trussable).
Solution #1: Make summer/tripheret not work on truss.

So long as it works only on trueprone and not paralysis-prone, and all other
things that give p sure

By it, i meant truss, and by trueprone, i meant diagging and it says 'sprawled
on the ground' btw

Hrm I don't actually mind just prompt prone p when you think about the actions
of the skill. If someone is paralyzed or stunned, they essentially cannot move
to stop a ninja from tieing them up super fast with ninja like skill. Believe
it!

The better solution is probably make summer/tipheret not work while sprawled. I
think the only reason they do is some weird syntax side effect of gedulah/green
being made to work prone

I like Ceren's solution.
---[Xenthos on 12/25 @ 21:44 writes]:
Sounds like that's a pretty good solution.
---[Nejii on 12/28 @ 10:06 writes]:
Didn't they always work sprawled?
---[Shuyin on 12/28 @ 20:02 writes]:
Ceren's solution will do instead of the truss thing---[Charune on 12/30 @ 08:43

Gedulah and Green do not use the same check as Summer/Tipheret.
