It doesn't contain any devisor materials, strictly gadgeteer products. Kevra and Cemakote (which, doing a lazy internet search, must be the WA suped-up version of Cerakote?) used in a way that emulates the Erinyes' suits.
Yes, this is correct.
I would rather be exposed to the inconveniences attending too much liberty than to those attending too small a degree of it.

I prefer to imagine watching a Vegan learn that their favorite Angora sweater comes from rabbits.

I wonder if there's a market for invisible angora sweaters...?

I love watching their innocent little faces smiling happily as they trip gaily down the garden path, before finding the pit with the rusty spikes.

Actually, vegans might prefer polyester over, say, wool, since it does not involve "exploitation" of animals.Bek D Corbin wrote: Well, as to the first question, a Sidhe wouldn't LIKE it, and they wouldn't get any of the benefits that a PK or an Exemplar would, they could wear one without physical harm. As for their reaction? Imagine a Vegan having to wear polyester.
Think of it as a Cartesian graph. One axis is "Natural-ness" -- this involves preferring natural over synthetics/processing. The other is "Animal rights" -- this involves minimizing exploitation of animals. One can be a vegan who uses synthetics (high on the AR axis, low on the N axis); one can be a nature nut who eats lots of meat (consider the so-called Paleo diet) -- high on the N axis, low on the AR axis.
