Expanding on this, can you use First Knowledge's Grace to teach a mouse of the sun Martial Arts?

If there are any roadblocks to teaching a student based on their level of cognitive functioning, First Knowledge's Grace will overcome them. It won't overcome physical restrictions, though, and the Storyteller may deem that there are some styles that a mouse of the sun is just physically incapable of using. However, beyond that, you could use First Knowledge's Grace in conjunction with Flowing Mind Prana to teach one Martial Arts.

Would a battlegroup of zombies have Might 1(lightly touched by the supernatural)? For this question, I'm assuming that they are only animate. The necromancer who raised them hasen't given them any additional "oomph", which in my mind makes them the same as regular humans just already dead. Am I correct in that assumption?

So I just noticed something weird about the Dragon Blood excellency.
In regards to boosting static values a Dragon Blood can add up to [Ability + specialty]/2 round up. Now two things jump out at me. First, static values such as evasion, and parry don't add a specialty when they're calculated. So a DB with Dex 2 + Melee 4 + Specialty (swords) would still only have a parry of 3 (barring defense bonus from weapon). Similarly, if you had the same DB with Dodge 4 + specialty (avoiding arrows) your dodge would still only be 3.
In both these cases, the DB can add up to [ability + specialty]/2 Round Up to their defense. So they'd have a defense of 6 since they can add up to [4+1]/2 = 3(rounded up). Is this the only benefit of having a specialty in dodge?
The second thing I notice is that when calculating the dice cap DB round UP when figuring out their cap. In the core, this was previously round DOWN (and every exalt type presented rounds down). Was this something that was changed in playtesting? Was it an intentional move?
I'm assuming the decision to round down for static value cap in the core was to make sure if your solar had Attribute 3 + Ability 4 + specialty your total Static Value potential would be 7 instead of 8.
As per the Core, a similarly built DB would have a SV potential of 6 due to rounding down, but from WFhW it would be 7 because they'd round up instead.
In the interests of clarity, in all three cases, the unmodified SV would be 4.
