Blind Vlaka and Animal Form


Rules Questions


On a whim I decided to play a Blind Vlaka Animist. I usually GM so I have a pretty good grasp of the rules as well. We've been finding the Blind Vlaka a bit problematic because outside the couple of paragraphs on Sensory Diversity in the Galaxy Guide and the Blindness or Impaired Vision serions in the GM Core, it seems some of the rules are a bit... blurry. Pun slightly intended.

On to the rules question:

If a character that has the Blind Disability (as opposed to the Blinded Condition) cast Animal Form, or any other polymorph type spell for that matter, does that character gain vision as a precise sense?


As far as I know, there's no official ruling on that. I would say that you should either have the Vlaka keep their existing senses (blind, precise hearing, imprecise scent), or just use the senses of the animal (precise vision, imprecise hearing). That feels like the most intuitive and consistent ruling.
