Ubermench

Is the advanced homid gift Ubermench (http://rageacrossthecape.com/forums/index.php?topic=4442.0) always on, or can it be turned on an off. I'm considering adding it to Owen's wish list, but only if it's off most of the time.

Ubermench, in RAtC, is considered always active, as stated in the Gift Description.

I think Marc misunderstood a bit...

If for some reason you wish to, you CAN turn the gift off temporarily. But for all intents and purposes, it is considered to always be active unless the player says he is turning it off (much like Scent of Running Water's ability to be on/off at will)

Nods...  I was looking at it from the point of view of it being a Benefit to have it always active, vs. the benefit of being able to make it not-active.  I completely agree with Joe's assessment.

Oh, well, that makes it bearable. Owen would go nuts if people started fawning over him everytime he, say, went to the grocery store. Plus, sometimes having Rage is useful.

So if you can suppress it at times, Could you suppress it all the time unless you say otherwise.
Information's pretty thin stuff unless mixed with experience.
