> Also does Lodestone pay close attention to what kind of inhibitions he reduces?  Because it could be very dangerous.  For instance if Chiaki met him, his attitude would cause her to have to restrain herself from killing him.  If her inhibititions were taken away like being very drunk, she'd probably slay him just for talking.

That's an interesting question. I keep meaning to go back to Kirk's original pitch for Lodestone to clarify that.

I have the impression that Lodestone can at least direct people's inhibitions. He's all about moral downfall. I seem to recall the intention that he could time-delay his abilities, or infect people but hold back the influence in exchange for payment or favours.

When I wrote his son Drugo in Young Heckfire I assumed that he had a more immature version of the power, without the time delay, but more focussed in the kind of specific effect his psychotropic sweat might have.
