[quote=@Ashifili] This was the answer I got from KoL a week or so back. And it's also been implied before that some other youkai are simply intangible ghosts of energy. I mean, really, yeah, youkai are tradiationally ghosts. Why would plain ol' physical weapons effect them the first place? That's why the OOC has this: Not sure about how the Crimson Sky is in this particular incarnation of the RP, but I got the impression in the past that the Crimson Sky was essentially another dimension. Not totally sure about the whole 'why are no other humans aware that youkai are popping around everywhere', but I think it might be because only people who have crossed the boundary into the Crimson Sky are aware of their existence. Sorta like gaining a supernatural sixth sense? Guess that's also why you don't have Trump telling the public that they need to build a wall to keep the Youkai out. And eh, maybe there's a weapon section for people who require tools to channel their powers through? Maybe it's expected that Chasers have unique supernatural weapons, or at least ones that have been enhanced by Carver? [/quote] Even if some Youkai are intangible, I imagine many are still physical. Even if they have heavy armor, they're still flesh. Furthermore, you still haven't explained what makes "magic" guns different from regular ones. Again, there's no discernable different between the monster getting a stab wound from a sword, or one of Hawlin's thorns or GrafRoy's ice spears. And another character also uses mundane firearms. What about her?
