Ah damn, just waking up and missed the last couple words about same type.

Assuming that you already did it, go ahead and use it for this event (the bear messed up bonus) and going forward remember it has to be same type.
Nah, hadn't used it yet. All good xD As I said, I had wanted to make sure I had wasted it

So... can Dangerous Allure (Fire) be used as an distinction to reroll dice in the Poem roll, even if Yuzu used Earth for the Roll?

In the same fashion, since Yuzu took a legacy poem from Hantei Genji, could he use Kuge Lineage (Earth), or Blessed Lineage (Void)?

*Considers*

I think those ones are stretching the advantages too far and will not allow them.

You can do dangerous allure, but only if your recite is Fire, not Earth.

If a passion dovetails with an event, can strife be reduced by gushing in the observation thread?

Specifically, obvi, can passion: storytelling fit with the poems if I go on and on and on about the stories?

So, on strife...

(1) Are we allowed to take strife on a roll that exceeds our composure, as long as we started the roll with strife below composure? For example, if at 4 strife out of 10 composure (one can but dream!), if I then make a roll, can I keep dice showing a total of 7 strife? Or do I have to stop keeping dice once I get to 6?

(2) If the former, and I'm at 11/10 strife after the roll, I'm now compromised and cannot keep any dice with strife. But I can still roll and just only keep dice without strife? And my other option at that point is to either unmask, or wait until the next timeslot, where strife will reset to half-max? And in that next timeslot or following I can also pursue a passion to reduce strife.

(3) Lastly, at 10/10 I'm not compromised, correct? Just at the limit.

For game balance issues, no, because it's not fair if you can load up on strife in the event, and then immediately lose 3 because you argue it deals with your passion since no one can really interact with you in the event thread.
