[Torg] Occult Magic w/Cyberpapcy

[Jeffrey Hosmer]

I don't think that would have any effect on the Corruption points.  The
Power of Corruption controls that, not any of the world laws of the
Cyberpapacy.  You could still earn an infinite number of Corruption points,
but only if it's a Wicked act by the usual rules.  You'd be far more likely
to disconnect, of course.

Now, if I was GMing this, I'd definitely interject some Cyberpapacy flavor
to the Occult event.  That'd be fun. :)  And if they fail the Occult roll,
there's nothing that says I couldn't have a demon show up if they failed the
roll.  As for the bonus, it'd really depend on what they were trying to
accomplish (to me, at least.)  If it makes for a good story, let it go.
