Magic, the fact that most supnats are pretty damn vulnerable to nukes and would rather live in peace, and the gods presumably want to keep it that way.

28187
And that's why we still have a masquerade. :P

28188
And, of course, the general rule, which is decapitation, because really, there isn't a whole lot of anything that can survive losing their heads, supnat or mundane, illusion, healing or domination.

Yes they do, in that it prevents the Kitsune from being shot (provide something else to shoot).
While a Werewolf or Vampire may be in pain afterwards, that's irrelevant. And Vampires can just turn into mist, making the shot miss.
Irrelevant, if a Dragon attacked him, he'd be screwed.
Most traditional undead in Germanic folklore are fae based.
Yes, but the Kitsune would still get hurt if they get hit to begin with. It's more a preventative measure than one that stops the pain and damage if it gets to you.

Also, I'm not saying the human would WIN-unless they were a mage or someone like Yukari or James- just that it's a lot less effort to go after a guy in the middle of the woods than to just pluck a guy off the alleyways. Gets you shot less and less likelihood of that drunk carrying a weapon on him than a guy in the woods would be. Plus, there's always a steady supply of drunks, there's not that many people in remote forest areas, otherwise they wouldn't BE remote forest areas anymore. :P

Illusions don't prevent a kitsune from being shot. They make it HARDER to hit you, but you're still going to be bleeding and sore if it hits you. :P
Vamps and werewolves, while not permanently harmed, are still going to feel that shit in the morning. I mean, you DID just get a ton of sharp metal in your face, even WITH healing that's gonna hurt.

Why would a dragon be invading a random humie? He's got better things to do, like run corporations to do that for him. He's a freaking dragon.
And the undead thing depends on the undead-pretty sure bog-standard zombies just die if their heads get blown off or their torso disappears, while stuff like mummies, ghosts and other more advanced undead like liches are harder to kill off.

I'm also pretty sure the cold iron weakness/holy weakness is Fae rather than undead, though, but we need GM confirmation.

the fuck
a one piece rpg
i want to play that

Yukari just sits in there silently, not knowing what to say.

((We're talking about some guy that lives in the middle of the woods. He's either crazy or a master at fighting in some way. And niether are something you attack.))
Or, at least, attack without a very good reason. There's a reason Vampires tend to live in cities nowadays- easier to target a random schlub in an alleyway than a guy who's probably a VERY good survivalist and athletic enough to keep off you.

Even if you WOULD eventually kill him, he'd have shotgunned or battered you hard enough that you'd better be hoping that meal's enough to last for, say, the three or so days it takes you to recover from the beating the humie just gave you in his death throes. So you'd have to be pretty desperate to go after a guy like that.

And if you WERE powerful enough to shrug off that, then what the hell are you doing feeding off random humies in a forest, you can probably do it off some asshole in a nightclub and nobody would give a damn due to dominate.
(("Single man living alone in countryside with no family members found missing yesterday."
"OH SHIT JENNY THIS OBVIOUSLY MEANS THAT THINGS LIKE VAMPIRES ARE REAL!11"))
Well, there's enough people who think like this to get SupNat hunters.

28194
((well what the hell is a house-sized dragon doing there anyway, trying to break the masquerade? :P))

28195
I'd assume Humans are Weak, but Skilled compared to Supnats, who'd be Unskilled, but Strong, with Empowered Humans (James, Larissa, Aulus, Yukari, Demetri) being anywhere along that gauge depending on how and what their powers came from.

28196
((Can I seriously ever make a point without it being countered by ridiculous, unrealistic (for the setting) circumstances?
If Sups aren't supposed to be known, how the hell is some guy in the middle of the woods going to have anything to defend against them?!))
((The same reason the same guy has stuff to defend against fucking bears. Or wolves. Or some asshole trying to invade his property.

Sups aren't the ONLY threat to humans, you know, and most sups are pretty vulnerable to being shot point-blank in the head with a shotgun. :P))

28197
((Not an individual living in a remote area with nobody else around.))
((That guy has a shotgun, a load of stakes, probably garlic to ward off vampires, and probably a fuckton of survival skills.

Easier to target a squishy city human like Yukari~ No survival skills and not likely to be carrying weapons~))

28198
((Supersonic space whales.

The humans have nukes.))

Kyousuke quietly resummons Michael and has his Persona scan the items.
"....it seems that piece of gum in your hands is a Chewing Soul. It regenerates your soul energy. Not unexpected- we've just restocked on them.

However....the tarot card.....huh.

It seems it's possible to use it on a Persona to....provide it a new skill. However, Michael tells me that none of you seem to be strong enough to use it.....and it seems to be matched perfectly to....wait, you say it's matched only to....the tarot card seems only to work for two Personae here; Samson and Kraken."

"No, the strength of that Shadow. The strong ones don't usually leave Achronos, yet that one nearly outright killed two of you....

I'll have to talk to our research department and see if they can figure out why. Did you guys get anything from it?"
