This is just a request to see what skills or abilities might be restricted from Justice this year. I think penumbra was restricted previously, and with how annoying shrine heal spam gets, I encourage that one to be banned.

What can we expect for the contest to be considered fair?

Subj: The approaching Justice Challenge

Mortals, the Seal of Justice yet requires a bearer and the challenge
approaches. Prepare for the battles of wit and tongue that await you and
be mindful of what will and will not be tolerated in your debates.

Allowed:
- influence/dramatics skillsets
- general healing (bromides, sparkleberry, etc)
- tradeskill items or abilities (including enchantment, tinkering, etc)
- any preparatory or permanent buffs (karma blessings, racial benefits,
etc) acquired before your debate

Not allowed:
- any activated abilities outside the skillsets allowed above (roulade,
laetitia, etc)
- passive ego regeneration from skills outside the skillsets allowed
above (presence, penumbra, etc)
- any action or skill that fully refreshes you (refresh, trueheal, etc)
- shrine abilities
- beasts

I must honestly say I don't understand why beasts aren't allowed... They're generally available to everyone, regardless of class or org.

Some people may get improved ego beasts, perhaps? I know HS have improved healing, at least. Not sure.

I will point you to last years thread about this topic for various clarifying questions and concerns which we responded to: http://forums.lusternia.com/index.php?showtopic=19709&hl=justice&fromsearch=1. Some questions may already be answered there.

Beasts weren't, though :(
